LAVEROCK- TRADITIONS OF SCOTLAND

Description

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.

Alex Smith – voice, harmonica, mandolin

Joanne O’Donnell – voice, whistle, percussion

Andy Upton – guitar
