Fraser, Iain

Koterana

Iain Fraser's latest release 'Koterana' retells the remarkable story of 800 Scottish Highlanders who followed Reverend Norman McLeod on a journey which lasted almost 40 years and spanned the globe, with Assynt-born McLeod setting off for Nova Scotia from Ullapool in 1817, before sailing to Adelaide in 1850 and finally settling in the village of Waipu, New Zealand in 1854. Iain was inspired by the incredible landscapes Reverend McLeod and his followers would have left behind, the places they travelled through and what they took with them. He creates a musical thread which joins the four countries in one remarkable story while incorporating elements of traditional material from the musical traditions of each.
