Burns Hall in the highlands of Kincardine, Victoria County, New Brunswick, Canada. Just before a Sunday Matinee, c.25 January, 2013.

Robbie Burns Night in the Colony is a compilation of several Burns Night concerts. Burns Night takes place each January in the Burns Hall in Kincardine, in the Scotch Colony, Victoria County, New Brunswick, Canada. The talent and love of music, brought by the Scottish settlers of 1873 and 1874, has been passed on through several generations to today. Many of the performers are descendants of these first settlers of The Colony. Once again, it is to the memory of those who have gone before that we dedicate this musical collection.
