Originally published in 1966, this was the first book on this
subject to be published for over a hundred years. It covers all
facets including little-known types of Gaelic song, the bagpipes
and their music, including the esoteric subject of pibroch, the
Ceol Mor or 'Great Music' of the pipes. It gives a comprehensive
review of the fiddle composers and their music, and of the Clarsach
and its revival, with an example of all-but-extinct Scottish harp
music. A chapter is devoted to the music of Orkney and Shetland and
the book contains over 100 examples of music many of which were
from the author's own collection and published here for the first
time.
