A Brave Wean O’ Tunes and a picturesque history lesson.

Helen and the team hear all about A Brave Wean O’ Tunes, a new book of music which delivers on its promise! Rab chats to a jet-setting piper and Helen gets a history lesson.

Presented by Helen Mark with Rab Lennox and Willie Hill.  Rab reports from the launch of ‘A Brave Wean O’ Tunes’ – a new book of music which certainly delivers on its promise! Helen’s on the River Bann for a history lesson from Dr William Roulston, ahead of his course ‘The Story of Ulster, 1600-1800’. Rab chats to Cameron Beggs - a jet setting piper who’s performed in some surprising parts of the world.

The team loves to hear from listeners with their comments about the programme, or with a yarn or song or poem to share or an Ulster-Scots event to promote. You can contact them at kintra@bbc.co.uk.
