Musica Scotica is a new series of scholarly editions of Early Scottish Music, published under the general editorship of Dr. Kenneth Elliott.
Volume II is the first in a series that attempts to put ‘Scots Songs’ in a true historical context. It contains part songs arranged according to contemporary practice for solo voice and lute accompaniment. All of these are provided with lute tablature and keyboard transcriptions, many with ‘divisions’.
29 songs with lute, plus six original 4-part versions, plus 24 fragments.

Absent I am
Adeu, O desie of delyt
Alas that same sueit face
Before the Greeks durst enterpryse
Departe, departe
Evin dead, behold I breathe
How shall a young man
How auld my febill body fure?
In a garden so green
In throu the windoes
Into a mirthfull May morning
Lyk as the dum Solsequium
Melancholie, great depute of despair
My Bailful briest
My inward heart doth only knaw
Nou let us sing
No wonder is suppose
O Lord my God, to thee I cry
O lusty May
Remember me, my deir
Remember rightly, when ye reid
Richt soir opprest
Sleepe not in syne / O Lord, consider
So prays me
The mighty God (Psalm 50)
The time of youth
What mighty motion
Who shall my malady amend?
Woe worth the time
How shall a young man [original 4-part version]
My inward heart, doth only knaw [original 4-part version]
O Lord my God, to thee I cry [original 4-part version]
Remember rightly, when ye reid [original 4-part version]
Sleepe not in syne / O Lord, consider [original 4-part version]
Who shall my malady amend? [original 4-part version]
