Traditional musicians and composers Amble Skuse, Ailie Robertson and Mike Vass have teamed up with writers Angus Peter Campbell, Sophie Crooke, Rebecca Sharp and Charlotte Murray to create new works of music and words inspired by the School of Scottish Studies Archives. Image These amazing archives contain thousands of recordings of songs, music, tales, verse, customs, beliefs and oral history. Hear them retold and re-imagined through the creative collaboration of some of the country’s leading artists. Performed by Maeve Mackinnon (voice), Angus Peter Campbell (narration), Amble Skuse (live electronics) and the strings of Mr McFall’s Chamber. Four new works are interwoven with beautiful traditional repertoire and poetry, creating a performance that captures the riches of our cultural history through music and words with live instrumental, vocal and electronic sound.
