APPLECROSS IMPRESSION

One of the hidden gems of the Highlands is the Applecross peninsula (Scottish Gaelic: A'Chomraich, the sanctuary). The beautiful village is formed by the centuries around the Abbey, founded in 672.
Applecross Impression opens with the breathtaking tranquility in the village and chiming of the old parish church that has replaced the Abbey. The beautiful Celtic heritage and the atmosphere of Applecross translates in the beautiful opening solo.
The middle section is typified by the traditional folk melody "MADAINN EARRAICK" which comes from the region where Applecross is located, called Wester Ross. A detail is that the ancestors of composer Cornelis Tj. Ros (s) have allways lived in this region and until today are united in the still existing ROSS CLAN.
We climb the peninsula to the highest point on more than 700 meters. In a wonderful recurring melody we expierence the stunning and expansive views, that can be called typical Scottish. We conclude with the calm feeling that once we want to return to this area.
