SIEGE OF KILDRUMMIE, THE. Scottish, Programmatic Medley. A medley of tunes composed with older tunes arranged by James Davie, editor of Davie's Caledonian Repository, a set of volumes published in Glasgow in 1829-30. It purports to musically describe the events leading up to, during and after the Battle of Kildrummie, and was dedicated by Davie to the spirit of the Scottish hero William Wallace.
