| Hello/Intro Scottish Return to index of stories... |
Hello. I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to New Hampshire Outlook. January 25-th is Robbie Burns Day -- the national day of Scotland. The day commemorates the birth of Scotland’s greatest poet. If you've ever sung "Auld Lang Syne" or heard such phrases as "the best laid plans of mice and men," then you've felt the influence of Robert Burns. On this program, we’ll talk to two people who promote Scottish culture here in New Hampshire. But first, Richard Ager with a look at the New Hampshire Highland Games -- held every September -- and considered one of the largest gatherings of the clans in the world. |

Here to talk about scottish Culture in the granite state: Gordon Webster -- the former Pipe Master for Queen Elizabeth -- and director of the NH School of Scottish Arts -- along with his wife Lezlie, who "founded" the school in Manchester. No need to get the word out about the school -- - they just open the windows. Q GORDON/LEZLIE: You don't usually equate NH with Scots -- Just how sizeable is NH's scottish Population? Q GORDON/LEZLIE: Are they concentrated in certain parts of the state -- |

Q I understand the BAGPIPE MUSEUM may be moving from Baltimore to NH? Would that put NH on the MAP in terms of scottish culture along with Highland games. ====== BETH: WE'VE GOT A MAP HERE -- DEPICTING THE GEOGRAPHY OF THE REGION. SCOTLAND occupies the northern 1/3rd of GREAT BRITAIN. Can see where the Scottish Highlands are, and Ireland. In looking at the map you can see why-- throughout history -there's been a constant migration between Scotland and Ireland. And, there's been centuries of shared culture, history and language. GORDON: Safe to say that's often lead to SOME CONFUSION as to what's IRISH and What's SCOTTISH? ** NAMES: If look at list of Irish and Scottish SURNAMES you'd likely see a lot of similarities. ** shared customs and languages like GAELIC. I always thought Gaelic Language spoken by the IRISH --but there's a SCOTS GAELIC? / close but not identical SAMPLE: Q Give us a sense of the SCOTTISH INFLUENCE influence -- we see here in this country? Q I understand you two met at the Highland Games in NH --years ago when Gordon was a Pipe Major for the Scottish Guard -- and you were a judge for the piping. Q How is it the SCOTS have been able to PRESERVE their culture more readily than others that have assimilated here in the United States? Q How -- and why did the school get underway? Q What would you want people to know about scottish Culture? |
