[scots-l] Hogmany Traditional Tunes?
About four years ago we spent a fantastic New Years in Inverness and attended the "tradtional" Hogmany celebration there. The highlight was a procession out to the torch lit football field where the entire community sang Auld lang sign. Since then I have come across Guid New Year as another traditional Hogmany song. What are the musical tradtions of Hogmany? Are there any? I would be interested finding out about any tunes (ABC format) and/or lyrics and how they are used in the context of celebrating the NEW YEAR in Scotland. Thanks!

I have been asked to help gather some background information on a tune - "Inis Oirr" and its composer, Thomas Walsh. Can anyone help?
