"A PORTRAIT OF BURNS THAT DOES HIM HONOUR - A
SUPERB SOLO PERFORMANCE ACTED WITH FEELING AND PASSION" The Daily
Mail
Robert Burns is one of the great romantic poets and one of the
world's great songwriters. He is also Scotland's national bard and the hero of
the Scots and people of Scottish descent everywhere. This unique recording
traces his life through an exciting part of the eighteenth century and provides
not only an insight into the man, but presents some of the best known works of
the artist.
It is hard to talk about Robert Burns without mentioning
John Cairney, the actor who is without doubt Burn's best known interpreter in
recent times. The two have become indissolubly linked through a series of
performances beginning with the famous one-man show, 'There Was A Man', through
Scottish television's 'Burns' and the first issue of this recording in 1976 as
a double LP. |
