Dougie McLean's 'Marching Mystery'

For various reasons, some students cannot manage along to the B Ed 2 Music tutorial during which we play the song 'Marching Mystery' by Dougie McLean. This is the stimulus for the Independent Study task so it is important that students have the opportunity to hear the song and to think about the many curricular links that are mentioned in the handout.

Please take some time to listen to this version of the song which was performed live at North Berwick in 2008.



The lyrics for the song might also be helpful and these can be found online. Here is one source.
