S.B. from Glasgow
I, 'THE LEXICOGRAPHER IN SKYE '
Soprano Solo by HELEN S. McKAY
Baritone Solos by ALEX. D. CARMICHAEL
A reconstruction of the evening spent at Dun vegan Castle by Johnson and Boswell. The company have dined and are now whiling away the period between dinner and bed.
II, 'THE NEW WORLD PAYS
HOMAGE AT AYR'
The scene is the interior of Burns's eottage-the moral that Homage and Reverence do not always go hand in hand.
III, ' THE COMPOSER AND
THE CATECHISM'
Mendelssohn composed two of his best known works after a visit to the Western Islands. This sketch describes his return from the island of Staffa, and shows the flow of creative genius dammed, temporarily, by the stern spirit of Highland Sabbatarianism.
IV, THE POET IN THE HIGHLANDS',
Wordsworth remembers a Scots Lass
Incidental Music by The GLASGOW STATION
ORCHESTRA.
