Product Description

Sing me a Song of a Lad who is Gone, text by Robert Louis Stevenson, to a tune attributed to Anne Campbelle MacLeod who heard boatmen break into a Gaelic iorram (or rowing song) while on a trip to the Isle of Skye. MacLeods tune evolved into todays The Skye Boat Song, and has since morphed into the Theme Song for the popular television series Outlander. MacLeods melody originally had lyrics by Sir Harold Edwin Boulton (1859-1935) published in 1884. Stevenson disliked the sentimentality of Boultons words so much he composed his own in 1892. This arrangement is scored for a 4-part SATB ensemble to be performed a cappella. Performance time: 3:05+
