GUEST,Elliot Help: Britten's The Highland Balou: Highland terms (41) RE: Help: Britten's The Highland Balou: Highland terms 05 Nov 11


I thought it was implied that I meant native speakers (because non-natives apparently can't be bothered to learn basic Scots phonology). I mean a Scots speaker who is familiar with singing technique and traditional interpretation. Kenneth McKellar, for example, does fine Burns interpretations, and eschews the ue sound. (Granted, much of Burns work was almost entirely in English).
