'The Waters of Kylesku' in Kylesku

Updated: Oct 12

I’ve always been drawn to the haunting beauty of Scotland’s landscapes and music. For as long as I can remember, visiting Kylesku has been on my bucket list. This tiny village in the Scottish Highlands, with its stunning views and rich history, has held a special place in my heart. Recently, after years of dreaming and planning, I finally made the journey to Kylesku—and it was everything I had hoped for and more.



The moment was made even more special by the chance to play and record “The Waters of Kylesku” on my cello, right in the heart of this breathtaking landscape.I'm thrilled to share this recording with you all and hope it captures some of the magic I felt in that moment. Kylesku is truly a place where music and nature come together, and I’ll carry this memory with me forever.


Standing by the water, surrounded by rugged hills, I felt deeply connected to the beauty and history of the place. The melody seemed to merge with the gentle sounds of nature, creating an unforgettable experience.


Kylesku lies where Loch Glencoul and Loch Glendhu converge, forming a narrow sea inlet that seems to invite contemplation. This remote spot, with its sweeping views and winding roads, has long captivated the hearts of visitors and locals alike. It’s a place where time feels suspended, where the demands of the modern world fade away, leaving only the soothing sounds of water lapping against the rocks and the distant call of seabirds
