Additional info/contents	Scotland is a land of contrasts: from the sweeping hills of the Lowlands and the densely populated industrial Midlands to the mountains and glens of the North and the rugged, barren outer islands. Scotland's musical heritage is no less diverse and colourful. The Scotsman has been described as "a creature of extremes - his sadness is despair, his joy is rapture", and Scotland's turbulent history only underlines these qualities. Clare Grundman's Scottish Rhapsody brings together some of the internationally renowned Scottish songs such as Auld Lang Syne, Scotland the Brave and The Bluebells of Scotland, while others - An Eriskay Love Lilt and The Cockle Gatherer - that are so well known and loved in Scotland are not so familiar to foreign ears and rightly deserve wider recognition. These two songs are from the Hebrides and are included in the Kennedy-Fraser collection Songs of the Hebrides. The beautiful lyrical love song An Eriskay Love Lilt contrasts sharply with the militant tones of Scotland the Brave. The Scottish Rebellion of 1745 led by Prince Charles Edward Stuart ("Bonnie Prince Charlie") ended brutally on the battlefield of Culloden, and the Prince had to flee for his life. He escaped in a boat to Skye. This event is commemorated in the hauntingly beautiful Skye Boat Song. The haunting lament Will Ye No Come Back Again? is also addressed to Bonnie Prince Charlie, who incidentally was never able to return to Scotland. Scottish Rhapsody typifies the love and sorrow, joys and longings that are in so many Scottish songs. It is a very apt musical portrait of Scotland.
