1. Fact of Life (3.49)

Music and words written and arranged by Twelfth Day

Hert (Orcadian Scots for ‘Heart’) is a suite in nine movements for nine musicians.

Inspired by George Mackay Brown’s iconic Orcadian writing, Catriona chose seven more Orcadian writers to represent the contrasting perspective making up the rich tapestry of Orkney life—the non-stereotypical characters that may not immediately spring to mind when thinking of a small island community.

Hert sets work from these poets to music, and also includes two instrumentals inspired by books written by Luke Sutherland and Laura Watts.
