The Corries website

Formed in 1962 as a trio - The Corrie Voices then Corrie Folk Trio, the group was then reduced to a duo composed of Roy Williamson and Ronnie Browne (who were not part of the original line-up), adopting around 1966 their final name The Corries (named after a characteristic element of the Scottish landscape).
After a very successful visit to the Edinburgh Festival in 1962, the group's success in Scotland was never denied.
In parallel with remarkable adaptations of traditional Scottish tunes - which ultimately makes them quite close to the work of Robert Burns - the duo has specialised in the Jacobite repertoire, illustrating Scottish resistance.

Their most famous original composition is Flower Of Scotland, widely known to rugby fans since Scotland's victory over the England team in the 1990 5 Nations Tournament.
It was on this occasion that the air prevailed as a replacement for God Save The Queen for the sequence of national anthems...
The contribution of this group to the transmission of traditional Scottish culture has been and remains essential; many of their songs illustrate in particular this site, providing an interesting light on the interpretation of the bagpipe airs (ceòl-beag repertoire).
