about

Strathspeys & Reels: Lennox's Love to Blantyre (trad.)/Captain Campbell (trad.)/The Iron Man (J. Scott Skinner)/Elizabeth’s Big Coat (trad.)/The Bird's Nest (trad.)

This set features strathspeys and reels common to both Scotland and Cape Breton. During the late 18th century, over 30,000 Scots settled in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia as a result of the English evicting them from their lands during a period known as the Highland Clearances. Over the ensuing decades, musical styles at home in Scotland evolved with European influences, but the geographic isolation of Cape Breton preserved the tradition of the original settlers.
