Description
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.
Alex Smith – voice, harmonica, mandolin
Joanne O’Donnell – voice, whistle, percussion
