Beginning in the 1600’s and reaching full bloom in the mid-1700s, music in Scotland took on new forms. Its social dance tunes, strathspeys, slow airs and ballad tunes display a character unique to Scotland. The Tune Shepherds have sifted this repertoire, given the tunes modern arrangements and, with amusing and informative introductions, present the peculiar music that illuminates the culture and history of a special place.
