Cape Breton Music

One of our top reasons to visit Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, was for their rich local tradition of Celtic music.  We attended a number of music concerts, or ceilidhs as they are called locally (in Gaelic).  Below are links to some video montages from those.


The Red Shoe Pub (2 min. 35 sec.)



The Celtic Music Interpretive Centre (1 min. 45 sec.)



The Chestico Museum (4 min. 2 sec.)



The Glenora Distillery Pub (3 min. 19 sec.)



The Scottish Concert (18 min. 41 sec.)

  1. Loved the Scottish concert. Venue? What did you use for a microphone? The sound was quite good. -- Jon

    1. Hi Jon, glad you enjoyed it! That concert was originally supposed to be outdoors at a local farm, but rain had turned the fields into mud pits. The concert was moved in the Judique Community Hall. We really liked the many mostly local performers.
      All the video was just my iPhone 5S handheld.
