Researchers say the tantalising discovery is a rare example of music from Scottish religious institutions 500 years ago, and is the only piece which survives from the northeast of Scotland from this period.

New article published! Some three years after my previous article on folia grounds in English sources, my follow-up article has been published in the journal Early Music. This one is about popular ballads based on ‘Farinel’s Ground’ written during some of the most turbulent years in British history, which is also reflected by some very conscious changes to the text, from ‘Let Tories guard the King, let Whigs in Halters swing’ in 1682 and 1684 to ‘Let Patriots guard the Throne, let Papists all go down’ in 1689!
