[Angela MacIlleathain – Preseantair] Bidh a' chiad oileanaich air cùrsa ciùil sònraichte a' ceumnachadh a dh' aithghearr. Tha am BA ann an ceòl le Oilthigh na Gàidhealtachd 's nan Eilean ga theagaisg aig astar - a' leigeil le daoine fuireach aig an taigh. Feumaidh iad tighinn còmhla ceithir tursan sa bhliadhna, ge-tà. An t-seachdain-sa tha iad air a bhith ann an Steòrnabhagh. Tha an aithris seo aig Eilidh NicLeòid.
[Eilidh NicLeòid – Neach-aithris] Leasan ann an seinn sailm Ghàidhlig do chuid de na 82 oileanach a tha a’ dèanamh BA ann an ceòl le Oilthigh na Gàidhealtachd 's nan Eilean. Tha oileanaich ann eadar Newcastle ‘s Sealtainn. Tha an teagasg air-loidhne agus tro cheanglaichean bhidio. Ach feumaidh iad thighinn còmhla ceithir tursan sa bhliadhna.
[Robbie Greig] ‘S e dòigh math a th’ anns na residencies daoine ùra a choinneachadh agus daoine eile a choinneachadh a tha thu dìreach a’ faicinn air a VC, air an video conference nuair a tha thu faighinn na lectures agaibh.
[Eilidh NicLeòid – Neach-aithris] Bidh a’ chiad oileanaich a’ ceumnachadh as t-samhradh seo. Tha e coltach nach eil cùrsa eile dha leithid am Breatainn a thaobh nan cuspairean agus mar a thathar gan lìbhrigeadh.
[Anna Wendy Stevenson] And I often mention Thomas Telford’s roads – he saw then as opening up the Highlands and Islands and in many ways what technology had enabled us to do is to open up the Highlands and Islands in terms of education and provide students the opportunity to stay at home and we don’t have this big drain of people leaving the Highlands and Islands to go to the central belt.
[Eilidh NicLeòid – Neach-aithris] Bidh mòran a’ roghnachadh beatha mar neach-cluiche proifeiseanta, ach chan eil an t-àrd-ùrlar cho tarraingeach do chuid, ‘s tha an cùrsa seo gan deasachadh beò-shlaint a dhèanamh à ceòl ann an iomadach dòigh.

[Eilidh MacLeod – Reporter] A Gaelic psalm singing lesson for some of the 82 students doing the BA in music through The University of the Highlands and Islands. There are students here from Newcastle to Shetland. The teaching is done online and through video conferencing. But they must meet up four times each year.
[Robbie Greig] The residencies provide a good opportunity to meet new people and meet others you’ve only seen on the VC, on the video conference, when you get your lectures.
[Eilidh MacLeod – Reporter] The first students will graduate this summer. It seems there aren’t any other courses like it in Britain, with regards to the subjects and how they are taught.

[Eilidh MacLeod – Reporter] Many opt for a career as a professional musician but the stage isn’t for everybody, and this course prepares them for making a living out of music in various ways.
[Caitlinn Ross] I’m going to be recording an EP in summer so that will be good. And just a little bit of everything. I like teaching young children at Fèisean.
