In the Scots language, ‘laverock’ means ‘the skylark’, a bird whose call 
rings out above the open heath. Robert Burns – Scotland’s national poet 
(1759 – 1796) – wrote often of the wonders of nature, a backdrop to the 
lives of the common folk who lived in the Scotland of his time.
Laverock set Burns’ poems to original melodies inspired by the 
traditional Scottish folk idiom, with a modern twist. Wistful airs speak 
to the sorrow of unrequited love, while hopeful songs celebrate the joy 
of companionship.
