Over three episodes I'll share the first three chapters of the book, recounting the arrival in Ireland of the Tuatha Dé Danaan. This chapter is read by Aoife McMahon.

The first four are extremely sparse and briefly told, so I recount them in the prologue before moving on the fifth invasion, that of the Tuatha. This short chapter sets up for the first major battle between the Tuatha and the native Firbolgs, which is covered in the next chapter, The First Battle of Moytura.

This is another Celtic story taken from my new book Scottish Myths & Legends Volume II, told by me. It's an old pagan tale of dancing trees which, to me, is an illustration of the overflowing of life and light we experience in Scotland in the middle of summer, when the nights never truly darken. I wonder if the people of Ancient Scotland might have believed that all the trees, not just those in this one glen, danced on midsummer's night. 

My version of the story comes from a version by the influential Traveller singer and storyteller Stanley Robertson. Supposedly Stanley’s family would camp at a Traveller site near Lumphanan in Aberdeenshire when they were working on the flax harvest; Auld Croovie was the name of a tree near the site. In some versions, the trees dance only once every fifty years. The word ‘Croovie’ is from the Gaelic word ‘craobh’ for tree.

Stanley Robertson had a profound influence on many singers and storytellers, including the celebrated singer Sam Lee who was his apprentice. You can listen to some recordings of Stanley on Soundcloud here.

Go out and tell this story to the trees.

]]> We're a bit past midsummer but it's such a great story, I couldn't resist!

This is another Celtic story taken from my new book Scottish Myths & Legends Volume II, told by me. It's an old pagan tale of dancing trees which, to me, is an illustration of the overflowing of life and light we experience in Scotland in the middle of summer, when the nights never truly darken. I wonder if the people of Ancient Scotland might have believed that all the trees, not just those in this one glen, danced on midsummer's night. 

My version of the story comes from a version by the influential Traveller singer and storyteller Stanley Robertson. Supposedly Stanley’s family would camp at a Traveller site near Lumphanan in Aberdeenshire when they were working on the flax harvest; Auld Croovie was the name of a tree near the site. In some versions, the trees dance only once every fifty years. The word ‘Croovie’ is from the Gaelic word ‘craobh’ for tree.

Stanley Robertson had a profound influence on many singers and storytellers, including the celebrated singer Sam Lee who was his apprentice. You can listen to some recordings of Stanley on Soundcloud here.

Go out and tell this story to the trees.

Jess is a storyteller, author and singer from the Scottish travelling people. She spent much of her childhood living on a bus and travelling around Scotland with her parents and seven sisters, spending evenings around fires listening to the stories carried by the travelling people while the rest of the country was busy forgetting them. 

Listening back to the interview, which we recorded a couple of year ago, I’m struck once again by gratitude that I know and get to talk to people who carry such precious heritage and knowledge as Jess, and to introduce you to her. There are very few people left who can remember this way of life, and even fewer with such a gift for describing it.

You can use the chapter marker if you’d like to skip straight to the story, which starts around 40mins in. But I'd highly recommended listening to Jess describe a way of life which is almost gone from this world.

My guest on today’s episode is Judith-Kate Friedman. Judith-Kate inhabits the flinty places where art, activism, ritual and oral tradition dance. She sings, composes, writes, performs, curates spaces, produces events, tends hearth-fires, tells stories and documents aliveness. Born in New York City, she now calls Washington State’s rural north Olympic Peninsula (traditional Coast Salish lands) home. 

Judith-Kate was married to the late Daniel Deardorff, who was a mythsinger, storyteller, ritualist, composer, and producer. A polio survivor and early teacher about Otherness, he toured extensively with renowned soft-rock band Seals and Crofts and produced award-winning albums for other artists. When post-polio sequelae required change, he became an independent scholar of myth teaching internationally alongside such renowned teachers as Robert Bly, Martin Shaw,  and Michael Meade, all of whom adored and revered him, and speak passionately of him and his work. 

Judith-Kate runs the Mythsinger Legacy Project which continues Daniel’s work restoring myth to culture and community. In this episode, Judith-Kate and I talk about Daniel’s life and work, and we are very, very fortunate to feature a recording of Daniel telling a story.

Note: There is some background humming noise from a ceiling fan during the story, which was recorded in Singapore, where it's very hot... don't worry, you'll tune it out.

Kamini is a pioneer in the global storytelling movement. She is the creative producer of Storyfest Singapore, founding director of The Storytelling Centre Ltd and a veteran performer who has graced stages from Edinburgh to Sydney. 

I first saw her perform in Edinburgh many years ago and was fortunate enough to be invited to her festival in Singapore last year.

In this interview, we discussed Kamini’s recent projects as well as her experience growing up in the plantations of Malaysia.

I’m glad to be back now, and with a very special guest: Sian Esther Powell, the host of the Celtic Myths & Legends Podcast.

]]> House of Legends is back!

Our guest this week is Michael Harvey. Michael Harvey is an internationally performing storyteller and a recipient of the prestigious Creative Wales award. Recently he has worked with production company Adverse Camber on Dreaming The Night Field, a piece based on the Fourth Branch of the Mabinogion, which toured Australia earlier this year.

Michael was kind enough to share both an exclusive preview of his forthcoming show Taliesin, and to share a recording of Branwen, his retelling of the Second Branch of the Mabinogion. Both were created and performed in collaboration with Pauline Down.

Learn more about Michael, get exclusive downloads and follow him on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter at www.michaelharvey.org.

]]> Daniel Allison Buzzsprout-1542283 Tue, 13 Aug 2019 03:00:00 +0100 1216 myths, legends, stories, storytelling, folklore, Scotland, Skye full false Episode 15: The Kitchen Gods with Charlotte Elizabeth Episode 15: The Kitchen Gods with Charlotte Elizabeth This episode was recorded at Storyfest Singapore in June 2019, where I was fortunate enough to see a group of young storytellers perform. The group had been mentored by festival organiser and legendary storyteller Kamini Ramachandran, and it was such a pleasure for me to see young people taking up the art of storytelling and doing so with passion, grace and skill. 

Charlotte was part of that group. She and I got talking over our welcome dinner and thankfully she agreed to tell a story for House of Legends! 

The story tells the origin of the Kitchen Gods, or Tao Quan. These gods were traditionally an important part of every Vietnamese household, and even have a day dedicated to them - the 23rd day of the last month of the lunar calendar. On the day they report what they have seen to the Jade Emperor. It was fascinating to hear Charlotte talk about how her mother would make offerings to the Kitchen Gods while she was growing up.

You can follow Charlotte at @_charlotteelizabeth on Instagram, and catch her storytelling at events across Singapore.
