This month is Kilted To Kick Cancer. Hmm ... kilts. What sort of classical music would you get from that? As it turns out, quite a lot. This month will see Sunday Classical selections highlighting the rich Scottish classical music tradition.
First up, Gustav Holst, who we've seen here before.
I was a bit surprised at just how much classical music about Scotland there is, including from guys like Haydn and Beethoven. Stay tuned this month.

Interesting selection... and timely! :-)
After about the first 20 seconds I'm singing, "What shall we do with a drunken sailor..."
Always something to learn -- the only Holst i knew was "The Planets" .
Didn't know about the Scottish connection.
Good job.
