Folk ballads pass down our country's heritage

Died For Love - - A bold young farmer courted me - He gained my heart and my liberty - He gained my heart with a free good will - And I must confess that I love him still. - 2. I wish, I wish, but it's all in vain - I wish I was a maid again - But a maid again, that never can be - Since that young farmer lay still with me. - - 3. I wish my baby little was born - And smiling on his daddy's knee - And I poor girl was in my grave - With the long green grass a-growing all over me

Quotations about Scottish Folk Bands.

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
