Lunchtime Concert: The Bubblyjock Collective

A magical combination of instruments and voice, and a fascinating journey through Scottish music and culture…

The Bubblyjock Collective are an exciting new ensemble which champions the richness of classical and contemporary music written in Scotland, with a particular focus on music relating to Scottish place, history and culture. All three members of the ensemble are graduates of the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.

​

The group’s current project, QUINES (a Scots word meaning ‘young women’) celebrates music by Scottish female composers. At the heart of the project is a brilliant new song cycle which sets texts from Scottish writer Gerda Stevenson’s celebrated poetry collection Quines. The composer, Lisa Robertson, hails from the West Highlands of Scotland – a rising star in the classical world, her music has been performed by the Royal Scottish National Orchestra and featured on BBC Radio 3.​
