The lyric Scots poetry of Hugh MacDiarmid, Sorley MacLean, William Soutar and Robert Louis Stevenson's A Child's Garden of Verses are featured in this premiere recording of songs by Borders composer Ronald Stevenson. Susan Hamilton’s clarion soprano voice is the perfect instrument for this introspective recital, which is, in the words of Hugh MacDiarmid (piano), ‘sharp and sweet and breaks the heart’.
