Scottish Songs

It is said that music opens a window to the soul, and Chris Findlater captured the soul of Scotland in his collection of traditional music and verse from a country known for its folk music. The 44 compositions are arranged for voice and piano, and range from the battle song "Blue Bonnets over the Border" to the sad love song "An Eriskay Love Lilt." The songs are written in traditional Scottish brogue so that they may be sung as they were in Scotland. Findlater provides a glossary of Scottish terms that defines all unfamiliar words and enables anyone to take pleasure in the time-honored music of Scotland. All Scottish aficionados here in America will enjoy Scottish Songs . This book is a treat or those who know the majesty of Scottish songs and those who wish they did.
