Burns's Edinburgh
The Edinburgh Musical
Society started out small - a group of amateur enthusiasts meeting in the back room of a pub. By the time Robert Burns came to
Edinburgh in the late
1780s, it was in its prime, with a new and muchenvied venue, the St Cecilia Hall, and a busy year-round programme of musical evenings.
Kirsteen McCue presents an afternoon of the music
Burns may have heard there - from firm old favourites like Handel's
Venus and Adonis, to some of the more outrageous offerings by Scots and Italian composers.
With special recordings by soprano Mhairi Lawson and the Castalian Band. Producer Svend Brown
Presented by Julian Gregory.
