Jacobites, Italians and Music in Edinburgh

About Jacobites, Italians and Music in Edinburgh

Join us for one of our informal talk series lectures, with Dr Brianna Robertson-Kirkland who will explore the story of the first generation of the Corris through images, storytelling and song.

Despite their Jacobite links and Roman Catholic faith, and many scandals that included bankruptcy and legal battles, the Corris emerged as one of the most important and powerful musical families in Scotland. Indeed, their story reveals much about Edinburgh’s musical history.
