L’Ecosse du 18ème siècle est un lieu privilégié de fusion entre écriture classique et répertoire traditionnel. À travers chansons, airs à danser ou à varier presque à l’infini, les compositeurs locaux ont en effet mené à bien un dialogue très savoureux entre la merveilleuse spontanéité des musiques populaires et l’extraordinaire raffinement des harmonies baroques. Un mélange détonnant!
Eighteenth-century Scotland was a privileged site of fusion between classical writing and the traditional repertoire. Through songs, tunes to dance to or that could be varied almost infinitely, the local composers in fact brought to fruition a very delicious dialogue between the marvellous spontaneity of folk music and the extraordinary refinement of baroque harmonies. A surprising mixture!
