In a search for Scottish themed music, I came across The Celtic Album with the Boston Pops Orchestra, directed by Keith Lockhart. Included are several pieces written for orchestra with Scottish and Irish themes, and several arrangments featuring Celtic musicians. This can be found in the music library – MCD1246. We have several recordings of the Boston Pops with different conductors – view the list here.
It is difficult to be around the music department at Furman for long before discovering that the current director of the Boston Pops, Keith Lockhart, is one of our distinguished alumni. This December the Furman Singers will tour with the Boston Pops, starting with a performance in Greenville. Tickets go on sale October 14!
