Aig toiseach na bliadhna sa, anns a' Mh脿irt, chuir an saoghal car dheth fad mionaid neo dha leis an naidheachd dhuilich gun do chaochail an seinneadair Iseabail NicAsgaill - a f脿gail be脿rn ann am beatha dhaoine air feadh na d霉thcha.

Ghabh saoghal a chi霉il, saoghal na G脿idhlig agus na h-ealain air fad balgam a' chlisgidh nuair a chaidh an naidheachd ma sgaoil gun do dh'fhalbh t猫 dhan fheadhainn aca fh猫in....Pi霉thar 's an t-seinn. T猫 aig a robh gibht phr矛seil - guth s貌nraichte, mar an
迟-蝉矛辞诲补.

Tha am program seo mar chuimhneachan air Iseabail - s脿r bhoireannach aig a robh spiorad is n脿dar mar an t-貌r. M脿thair, Seanmhair, Seinneadair, Bana-Le貌dhasach agus Rubhach gu c霉l a br貌ig......Iseabail NicAsgaill.

Time stood still for a few minutes at the beginning of the year in March with the devastating news that the renowned Gaelic singer Ishbel MacAskill had tragically and suddenly died - leaving a void in the lives of so many.

The news shook the musical world, the Gaelic world and the arts community here in Scotland and further afield to the core. They had lost one of their own; a sister in singing. A woman who had a special gift - a voice like silk.

A special tribute to Ishbel - an incredible lady who had a zest for life and an infectious positive outlook. A mother, a grandmother, a singer, a Lewis woman and a Point woman through and through.
