SCOTTISH SONG BOOK
Wilt thou be my dearie o The gloomy night is gathering fast o Ye banks and braes and streams o On a bank of flowers on a summersday o O poortith cauld and restless love o Whar hae ye been a'day o
Now spring has clad o I've seen the smiling of fortune o O were I on Parnassus Hill o When merry hearts were gay o Ye banks and braes of bonny doon o Adieu ye streams o O saw ye bonie Lesley o
Nae gentle dames, tho'e'er ae fair o True hearted was he the sad swain o Duncan Gray came here
to woo o O love will venture in o o Turn again thou fair Eliza o Gone is my heart, for ever gone

BEETHOVEN van, Ludwig
Symphony No 4 in B flat major, opus 60 Symphony No 7 in A major, opus 92
ROYAL FLEMISH PHILHARMONIC Philippe HERREWEGHE


Precisely Philippe Herreweghe's experience with historical instruments allows a 'modern' orchestra such as deFilharmonie to develop a stylistically wellconsidered vision on
Beethoven's symphonies. A vision which, more than anything else, emanates from an intense study of the technique and content of Beethoven's scores
