Getting an insight into – and sneak preview of - Isla Callister's traditional music composition which celebrates the role women have played in Manx history. 'Creeaght', which means 'Courage' in Manx, was launched as part of Yn Chrunniaght last year.

Today, to celebrate International Women's Day 2023, Culture Vannin has released a video of the event - which you can watch in full here. 

The suite of music was performed by an all women-identifying ensemble and featured artwork by award-winning Manx illustrator Jo Davies, who has bought the stories of these women to life through her illustrations.
