Burns Night with Hortus

Falkland Palace and Garden is delighted to present Burn's Night with Hortus, a collection of sung delights exploring the music and song traditions from which Burns' genius emerged - from courtly madrigals to bawdy part songs, folk songs to more prayerful offerings - interwoven of course with the uniquely thoughtful, romantic and rousing songs of the Scottish poet himself.

"Hortus (meaning Garden) are a quartet of four choristers from the choir of St Giles' cathedral in Edinburgh. We are passionate about bringing beautiful historic music alive in places it may once have been heard – in fact, one of the pieces in our repertoire is a welcome song composed for Margaret Tudor on her marriage to James the IV in 1503 – which, given Margaret and James’ love for Falkland Palace may well have been last heard in that very place over 500 years ago!"
