Summary

A collection of poems and songs by Robert Burns in an award-winning audio production by Almost Tangible. Set within modern and vivid soundscapes, this audio collection gives Burns' texts new resonance.

From the soullessness of a call center through the simple joy of a baby's nursery to the horror of the battlefields and all the way into space, this is a visceral roller-coaster through the poems and songs of Scotland's national bard. Robert Burns like you've never heard him before!

Produced with immersive 3D sound, we recommend listening on headphones.
