This is a translation of a song in the Gaelic repertoire called Mac a Phi. It uses the tune from the well known reel, Mrs MacLeod of Raasay. Christine Kydd learned this from the singing of Lizzie Higgins, the great traveller singer and daughter of Jeannie Robertson.

This is the second song in a dance set that Christine Kydd has put together, though each song stands alone and on its own merit as well as in this set.

MacPhee is a lively reel and great fun to learn. Christine goes over all the words carefully and sings the song phrase by phrase to make it easy for you to learn in this 12 minute lesson.
