Publisher's 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.

Shit

Love Robbie Burns, but this was trite. The sound effects were awful, and there was no way to navigate through the poems.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
