In 2004 the prestigious Celtic Connections Festival of Glasgow commissioned Maggie to write a 45 minute piece of music which was performed to great acclaim at the festival in 2004 and 2005. Now Maggie has further developed the piece which combines music and song in Gaelic and English and has recorded it using some of Scotland's finest musicians and singers. In recent times female Gaelic poets have been starting to find their voices and be heard once again. Their words and the words and melodies of the female bards and tradition bearers of the last few centuries are the main inspiration for “Òran na Mnà ” (A Woman’s Song) which links the voices and feelings of woman from centuries past to the present day.
