Description:... This work spans some 3,000 years, dealing with traditional and classical music from the earliest artifacts to the vigorous folk and popular music of Scotland today. But it is not only this awareness of the full historical and cultural perspective of the Scottish music which makes this book so significant; its chronological treatment relates the country's rich wealth of music to its political and artistic history.
