Folk songs tell a story

   Weel May the Keel Row - - As I came thro' Sandgate, - Thro' Sandgate, thro' Sandgate - As I came thro' Sandgate, - I heard a lassie sing: - Chorus: - Weel may the keel row, - The keel row, the keel row - Weel may the keel row - That my laddie's in. 2. Oh, wha's like my Johnnie, - Sae leish, sae blithe, sae bonny? - He's foremost 'mang the mony - Keel lads o' coaly Tyne. - Chorus: - 3. He'll set and row sae tightly, - Or in the dance sae sprightly - He'll cut and shuffle sightly - 'tis true - were he not mine.

 
 

Scottish Folk Bands - Quotations.      

Quotations about scottish folk bands and their instruments crop up throughout literature. Here are some quotations:-

There are in the music of the violin ... accents so closely akin to those ofcertain contralto voices that one has the illusion that a singer has taken her place amid the orchestra. One raises one’s eyes, and sees only the wooden case, delicate as a Chinese box, but at moments, one is still tricked by the Siren’s deceiving call; at times too, one thinks one is listening to a captive genie struggling in the darkness of the sapient, quivering and enchanted box, like a devil immersed in a stoup of holy water; sometimes, again, it is in the air, at large, like a pure and supernatural being that unfolds its invisible message as it goes by. Marcel Proust
