Autor

Keith Sanger is well-known in the field of Scottish history for his imaginative and meticulous research. He has published many articles relating to Highland history, early music and Scottish music. A piper himself, he developed an interest in the connection between Piobaireachd and Harp music which, along with the harp playing of his wife, led to a deeper investiation into the history and background of the Scottish and Irish harps in general. Alison Kinnaird has an international reputation as a visual artist and musician. She is also one of the foremost exponents of Scottish harp music, playing both gut and wire-strung Scottish harps.
