The Music and The Land - The Concert
Featuring The Occasionals, Phil Cunningham, Martin Carthy, Ross Ainslie, Simon Thoumire, Gary West, Jane Gardner, Billy Kay, Cailean Maclean, and Janet Barbour, these recordings are taken from the 2 concerts that launched 'The Music and the Land' collection - 'A book launch like no other.'

With the stunning photography of Cailean Maclean and over 450 of Freeland Barbour's compositions, 'The Music and the Land' is a wonderful tribute to Scotland's landscape and traditions. This sumptuous 2-volume book was published by Birlinn Ltd. in October 2015 and launched with concert/ceilidh nights at The Queen's Hall, Edinburgh, and The Old Fruitmarket, Glasgow. This album was recorded at these nights and contains much of their magic, a chance to hear just a few of the compositions from the book, and also to hear other music from the distinguished list of performers. Everyone in the concert had made a contribution to the book in some way and this made for a wonderful atmosphere and, in the words of author James Robertson, 'a book launch like no other.'
