LAVEROCK: TRADITIONS OF SCOTLAND

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.
