Hamish Henderson, Burns, and Music by Prof. Fred Freeman

29 Jan 2025 - 6:00 PM to 7:30 PMCentral Lending Library
Event

An exploration of two great sangsters, Hamish Henderson and Robert Burns, both of whom redefined Scottish culture; provided, against all odds, a national and international vision of the country - bringing together all the vital Scots, Gaelic and Norse cultural

strands and rejecting all the empty arguments of those who  insisted that Scotland was, at best, a mere fragmented nation lacking social and cultural wholeness.  Both artists recreated the nation - especially through their song-writing.

This is an Immortal Memory with a difference by Professor Fred Freeman of the RCS.

A multimedia presentation drawing upon Professor Freeman’s recordings and graphic illustrations that highlight the central points of his thesis.
