Songs

Twenty online audio files associated with the book are available on the YouTube channel Katherine Campbell – Songs of Robert Burns.
One example has been taken from each of the ten chapters, and the treatment of the songs ties in with the themes of discovery and re-creation by presenting first a traditional song version which Burns would have, or might have, known, and then taking Burns’s own song related to the earlier song/tune and re-creating it for a modern audience through the use of piano accompaniments.
