Exploring Scotland’s Diverse Music Scene in Australia
Scottish traditional music, known as Scottish folk music, has remained vibrant throughout the 20th century and into the 21st. Traditional Scottish music includes various styles such as ballads, reels, jigs, and airs. The bagpipes, an iconic Scottish instrument since the 15th century, play a prominent role in traditional music. Our most recent music award winners include Fiona Ross and William Hutton, both Scottish migrants in Victoria.
