Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Westering Home (Hugh Roberton)
Definitely Scottish. Definitely Hugh Roberton - as were many texts set to traditional Scottish airs. My father, to whom Hugh Roberton gave a gold medal for his singing of Braes of Balquidder at the old Edinburgh Festival, back in the 1920s, used to say that Hugh translated many gaelic texts as well - any confirmation?
