Focus: Scottish Traditional Music engages methods from
ethnomusicology, popular music studies, cultural studies, and media
studies to explain how complex Scottish identities and culture are
constructed in the traditional music and culture of Scotland. This
book examines Scottish music through their social and performative
contexts, outlining vocal traditions such as lullabies, mining
songs, Scottish ballads, herding songs, and protest songs as well
as instrumental traditions such as fiddle music, country dances,
and informal evening pub sessions. Case studies explore the key
ideas in understanding Scotland musically by exploring ethnicity,
Britishness, belonging, politics, transmission and performance,
positioning the cultural identity of Scotland within the United
Kingdom. Visit the author's companion website at
