Bagpipes, kilts, porridge, Highland flings, tartan, shortbread, Rob Roy…if ever a country’s musical culture was misguidedly defined by popular misconception, then it’s Scotland.
The truth is that the indigenous music of Scotland is a veritable fireball of rage, heartbreak, protest, celebration, love, death and beauty with much to say about the country’s proud, dramatic and often bloody history.
Historic ballads and a whole compendium of emotions are wrapped up in the exceptional musicianship to be found in a gloriously rich fund of fiddle, accordion and, indeed, pipe tunes as heard here on Beginner’s Guide to Scotland.
This compilation encompasses various key figures in Scotland’s broadly varied musical history inc. Edinburgh’s Harry Lauder (described by Winston Churchill as “Scotland’s greatest ambassador”), violinist & composer James Scott Skinner & one of the folk revival’s greatest artists Dick Gaughan. Representing the modern guard are the acclaimed Karine Polwart, the award-winning LAU, the enigmatic Alasdair Roberts and the best-selling
Kate Rusby.
Scots music has a powerful past, but it’s matched by a vigorous present and, you fondly imagine, an exciting future. |
