Announcing our participation in the Walter Scott 250th anniversary celebrations

We are delighted to announce our participation in The Walter Scott 250 Partnership celebrating the 250^th anniversary of the birth of the great Scottish writer.

Our contribution to the celebrations will be a short documentary film exploring a special, but little understood facet of Edvard Grieg’s early work. We will be launching the film on the composer’s birthday, 15 June 2021.

The Scott 250 celebratory year comprises a wide range of events aimed at changing perceptions of ‘Scotland’s greatest storyteller’, and offering new and refreshing perspectives on his legacy.
