Folk ballads pass down our country's heritage

   Pretty Peg - - As I gaed up by yon gate-end, - When day was waxin' weary, - Wha did I meet come down the street, - But pretty Peg, my dearie! - 2. Her air sae sweet, an' shape complete, - Wi' nae proportion wanting, - The Queen of Love did never move - Wi' motion mair enchanting. - - 3. Wi' linked hands we took the sands, - Adown yon winding river; - Oh, that sweet hour and shady bower, - Forget it shall I never!

 
 

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
