Cambridgeshire, a location where our Scottish Folk Band can playTowns, cities and regions have an influence on the style of music, whether it is the 'English Countryside' feel of Vaughan Williams, the strength of Elgar's Victorian Malvern, or the skirl of Northumbrian Pipe tune. Of Cambridgeshire, has been said:- " When one thinks of Cambridgeshire it is usually the fine city of Cambridge with its glorious colleges that first springs to mind. Cambridge is indeed the jewel in the county, a destination everyone should plan to visit sometime; but spare some time to discover the charming countryside as well. There is a rich heritage to be found within the market towns and pretty villages, and peaceful idylic scenery to be enjoyed along the riverbanks of the Cam and Great Ouse. In the north east the fenland around the Bedford Levels, with its dead straight roads and grid of dykes and drainage ditches, its peat coloured soil and isolated windmills, can seem strangely empty, but has a minimalist beauty. This contrasts with the upland areas of the south, where the landscape is gentler and more hospitable, home to pretty, peaceful villages with thatched and timbered houses and interesting churches " We had the music of the bagpipe every day at Armadale, Dunvegan and Col. Dr Johnson appeared fond of it, and used often to stand for some time with his ear close to the great drone. ~James Boswell CLICK HERE [Scottish Folk Bands in Cambridgeshire for your wedding] [About Scottish Folk Bands] [Ensembles in Cambridgeshire wedding music repertoire] [About Cambridgeshire] [About music in Cambridgeshire] [About Wedding Venues] [About Wedding Ceremonies registrars, ministers and music] [About other kinds of music such as jazz or folk] [Frequently Asked Questions FAQs] [Ensembles1] [Ensembles2] [Ensembles3] [Ensembles4] [Links] [Home Page] | | |
