Margaret Daunt  (1912-2006)

Comunn na Clàrsaich (The Clarsach Society) formed in Dingwall in 1931 celebrated its 75th Anniversary in 2006. The Music Committee of Comunn na Clàrsaich decided to produce for the Society a 75th Anniversary Folio of music suitable for Elementary players. A number of our well-known composers and arrangers were invited by the committee to contribute appropriate music for this Folio for which we thank them.

The Executive Council of Comunn na Clàrsaich decided to dedicate the 75th Anniversary Folio to the memory of Mrs Margaret Daunt. She was a member of the Society from its early days, and worked tirelessly to promote the Clarsach. From 1958 she was an Honorary Vice President of the Society until her death in 2006.
