Caledonia – Words and Music for Sir Walter

Alasdair Hutton, the narrator of the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo for 30 years, and Brian Taylor, former Political Editor of BBC Scotland, give readings from Scott's works on the themes of resilience and recovery. These will be interwoven with contemporary choral settings of Scott's poetry by Edinburgh composer Nigel Don, sung by The Signet Singers. The conductor will be Stephen Doughty, Chorus Director of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra Chorus. A lively celebration of Scotland's literary giant, devised for the 250th anniversary of his birth.
