Full Description
This volume is a complement to the well-known Saltire Scottish Song Book, and contains forty-five traditional Scottish songs with piano accompaniment. Some of these strongly characteristic melodies are deservedly popular while others are lesser known, and the selection covers a broad range of emotions and subjects. The songs are suitable for adults or children, solo or group singing, and ideal for use in music festivals. Selection and arranging of the material was undertaken by George McPhee, George C. McVicar, John Rankin and Stuart M Robertson and the music editing was done by George McPhee and Frank Spedding.
