The Scottish folk song settings

[Chaszz]

I have done a search of the site but not come up with anything much except one authentic recording thread which doesn't tell me very much. But I know the Scottish folk song ssttings have been discussed here quite a bit. Can anyone recommend a good recording of a good sample of them which might be available in the States or on the internet. (There is one for over $50 which I can't afford). Also has anyone heard an album of Beethoven lieder, including Scottish, by a baritone named Holzmaier who I think is very good? And where it might be bought? Thanks.

Wolfgang Holzmair's CD of Beethoven's Folk songs with the Trio Fontenay is on Philips(289 442 784-2).

He sings them with charm and the trio is delightful.I love this recording.

Another fine CD is the one we featured a while back Arrangement of Scottish Songs - which included one of my favourites 'Bonnie Laddie, Highland Laddie'.
