Roderick Morison information


Roderick Morison (Scottish Gaelic: Ruairidh MacMhuirich), known as An Clàrsair Dall (The Blind Harper), was a Scottish Gaelic poet and harpist.[1] He was born around 1646 in Bragar, Lewis and educated in Inverness, but he also learned to play the clàrsach (Celtic harp) as a profession. Later on, he moved to the Isle of Skye where he died around 1713. Morison is best known for his songs of praise for Gaelic aristocrats, for example MacLeod of Dunvegan and Iain Breac, MacLeod of Lewis.[2]
