Thread Name: Robert Burns documentary recommendations
Subject: RE: Robert Burns documentary recommendations
Tree of Liberty is an excellent suggestion! It looks at The Songs of Robert Burns project of Serge Hovey, features Esther Hovey, Jean Redpath, Lynn Shevitz and others - Hamish Henderson made some of these connections for Serge, helped him source the original tunes lurking in libraries in Edinburgh...
Sadly every single person I just listed (apart from Tim!) has now passed away, so the documentary is even more of a treasure.
(all of Tim Neat's books, films and artworks are worth seeking out)
