Landmarks: Border Voices @ Hawick Museum
Join us in the Scott Gallery at Hawick Museum for this performance of songs by the great Hawick composer Francis George Scott. This will also be a rare opportunity to hear performances of songs by another great - and greatly neglected - Hawick-born composer, John Blackwood McEwen.
Part of the Landmarks: Border Voices exhibitions currently running in the gallery, the songs in the concert will include settings of Hugh MacDiarmid and others, both distinctively modern and deeply traditional, by turns lively and gleeful or slow, melodic and thoughtful: always a pleasure to hear.
Performed by Kirsteen McCue, Professor of Scottish Literature and Song Culture at the University of Glasgow and David Hamilton, who teaches at both the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland and the Music School of Douglas Academy.
