Christine Primrose Шаблон:Postnominals (Шаблон:Lang-gd; born 17 February 1950)[1] is a Gaelic singer and music teacher. She was born in Carloway, Lewis, but she currently lives on the Isle of Skye.[2][3]
In interviews Primrose has stated that she has been singing since she was a small child, which is very typical in her family. She won a gold medal in sean-nós at the Royal National Mòd in 1974 and an award at the 1978 Pan Celtic Festival,[4] and, as was not common at the time, she took a degree in traditional Gaelic music, and she has been performing all around the world, especially in North America, Australia, New Zealand and in Europe. For example, she was at the Smithsonian Folklife Music Festival in Washington, D.C., with Alison Kinnaird.[5] Besides this, she was a member of Mac-Talla,[6] and she has presented television and radio programmes.Шаблон:Cn According to Cencrastus magazine, her first album Шаблон:Lang became "a classic for its generation". It was re-released on CD in 1993.[7] At the time, Temple had reportedly been told that "no one was interested in that [Gaelic music]".[8]
Besides her performance work, Primrose has been working at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig since 1982, the year that the school began to offer full-time courses. At first she was a secretary, and since 1993 she has taught in the course Gaelic and Traditional Music (BA) and in short courses.[9] She has complained that "bias... resulted in some of Scotland's finest musicians being treated as little more than 'noble savages'".[10]
