Ae Spark o Nature's Fire: Burns Song Workshop with John Morran

Come and celebrate Robert Burns as we learn his favourite love song and some of his lowland mooth-music in this workshop with acclaimed singer John Morran. Suitable for all abilities and experiences.

With his richly expressive, subtly poignant voice, John Morran is widely recognised as a leading exponent of Scots song. He hails originally from the Ayrshire ex-mining community of Muirkirk, deep in the heart of Burns’ kintrie. With the nearest town in any direction being ten miles away, the village remains a stronghold of the Scots language, which inspires much of John's singing, whether in Burns ballads or contemporary compositions from the region. He has been a member of and produced albums for some of Scotland's finest traditional bands and artists, acclaimed both here and abroad. John is also a lifetime honorary member and former Director of the Traditional Music and Song Association of Scotland (TMSA).
