| On Eagle's Wing DVD Description: "This beautiful program features a spectacular musical, a dance show and an oratorio all rolled into one. Filmed on the vast stage of Belfast’s Odyssey Arena in Northern Ireland, John Anderson’s stunning new work tells the story of the Scots-Irish, their humble beginnings in the Lowlands of Scotland in the late 1600s their flight from persecution by the English, their arrival in Ireland and their continuing journey to American in the 1700s, where these pioneers first opened up the frontier. With exciting music, song and dance, On Eagle’s Wing is a dramatic story of emigration, separation, love and loyalty; an epic tale of the people who played a major part in the revolutionary struggle for American Independence. The power of the pipes and explosive dance routines and rousing music from the 500-member cast of choristers, performers like Peter Corry and Alyth McCormack, drummers and the marvelous musicians in the orchestra ensures that On Eagle’s Wing delivers on every front! "This 2 DVD set also features a documentary: a stylish television special that tells the story of the Scots-Irish who left heir homes in the Scottish Lowlands and settled in the new world of America."
