成人快手 ALBA's flagship documentary series launches its new series with Trusadh: The Ferryboat. The programme follows the creative musical journey of a major new commission for the 2014 Commonwealth Games - with a debut performance in the cliff top setting of Sabhal M貌r Ostaig in Skye, followed by further concerts in London, Inverness and Glasgow.

Ferryboats have long been a fascination for Mary Ann and have been a constant in her life.

Trusadh: The Ferryboat - a fascinating trans-Atlantic creative musical journey of people and place, that celebrates the place of the ferryboat in the Scottish rural west coast, and also resonates with the shared experience of rural communities in other parts of the Commonwealth.
