Arrane Son Mannin - original Manx Gaelic song competition
The 10th Arrane son Mannin competition will be held on Saturday 17th January at the Douglas Freemasons' Hall as part of a concert and ceili which will not only celebrate 10 years of Arrane son Mannin but also 40 years of the Manx dance group Bock Yuan Fannee.
The song competition is held annually to find a winning new song for the £300 prize sponsored by Culture Vannin and also to perform that winning song at the 44th Pan-Celtic Festival at Derry on April 9th in Easter week 2015.
There was euphoria in Derry amongst the Manx last Easter when Shenn Scoill's 'Tayrn Mee Thie' with Michelle Jamieson won the Pan-Celtic New Song competition for the first time ever! [pictured] Let's see if we can have a good competition here and then make it two in a row.
Entry form in by Friday 5th December 2014 please.
Music and lyrics in Manx and English in by 31st December 2014
