  • Traditional Music of Scotland
    Traditional Music of Scotland A Journey to the Musical World of Today Abstract Immigrants from Scotland have been arriving in the States since the early 1600s, bringing with them various aspects of their culture, including music. As different cultures from around Europe and the world mixed with the settled Scots, the music that they played evolved. For my research project, I will investigate the progression of “traditional” Scottish music in the United States, and how it deviates from the progression of the same style of music in Scotland itself, specifically stylistic changes, notational changes, and changes in popular repertoire. I will focus on the relationship of this progression to the interactions of the two countries throughout history. To conduct my research, I will use non-fiction sources on the history of Scottish music, Scottish culture and music in the United States, and Scottish immigration to and interaction with the United States. Beyond material sources, I will contact my former Scottish fiddle teacher, Elke Baker, who conducts extensive study of ethnomusicology relating to Scottish music. In addition, I will gather audio recordings of both Scots and Americans playing “traditional” Scottish music throughout recent history to compare and contrast according to their dates. My background in Scottish music, as well as in other American traditional music styles, will be an aid as well. I will be able to supplement my research with my own collection of music by close examination. To culminate my project, I plan to compose my own piece of Scottish music that incorporates and illustrates the progression of the music from its first landing to the present.

  • Melodic Identity and Tune Resemblance Karen E. Mcaulay
    1 ABSTRACTS (grouped by session) Session 1: Melodic Identity and Tune Resemblance Karen E. McAulay (Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, Glasgow) ‘All the right notes, but not necessarily in the right order’*: Musical Resemblances over the Border The appealing Northumbrian pipe-tune, “I saw my love come passing by me”, appears in at least three nineteenth century sources, and again in Cock’s Tutor for the Northumbrian Half-Long Bagpipes. The latest two of these are shorter, whilst the first two elaborate the tune with variations. Nonetheless, the resemblances are clear; their kinship is indisputable. However, there are two much earlier appearances of similar tunes in publications north of the border. A century older, each has a different title, and although the shapes of these tunes are undeniably similar, they are certainly neither identical forerunners to one another, nor to “I saw my love”. Indeed, one source was linked in 1925 to a totally different tune. Notwithstanding this earlier identification, I dispute the similarity, and propose that there is some kind of link between “I saw my love” and her earlier Scottish cousins. Whilst the Tune Archive enabled me to trace the iterations of the Border tunes, it failed to flag up these Scottish tunes as potential relatives, partly because their rhythmic notation means the Theme Code index failed to pick up the same strong beats. I propose to demonstrate the methodology I have adopted to attempt to prove my hypothesis. If I’m right, it suggests that before I saw my love come passing by me, she had enjoyed a bit of a shadowy Celtic past.

  • Dance the Highland Fling
    Dance the Highland Fling Liina Flynn | 21st July 2011 When I was growing up, my Scottish grandmother taught me how to dance the Highland Fling. With arms flung above my head, I hopped on my feet moving one leg behind the other as I chanted “shed, behind, before, behind”. The footsteps of the dance were taught to me in an old chant that explained a pattern of fabric weaving and helped me to remember which steps came next. One theory about the Highland Fling is that it originated as a dance of triumph at the end of a battle; another says it was danced on top of a shield before battle, to ward away evil spirits. So, with highland dancing and its militaristic origins on my mind, I took my tartan heart and my (sort of) nimble feet and Scottish country dancing enthusiasts Judy Cook and Andrew Ross. went to learn more about Scottish dancing. When I arrived at a Scottish country dancing class in Lismore, rather than launching into a solo Highland Fling, I was prepared to take part in a group dancing lesson with guided instructions. I had heard about the formal Scottish dance „The Gay Gordons‟, but dancing instructor Judy Cook tells me it‟s a pretty ordinary dance and closer to ballroom dancing than Scottish country dance. Instead, tonight we‟ll be doing dances like Galloping Carousel, Campbell‟s Frolic, Dancing Bees, and Good Hearted Glasgow. Scottish country dancing usually requires at least six or eight people to be able to form a set, but while we‟re waiting for other people to arrive, Judy wants to teach us Domino Five, a dance that only requires five people.
