The instrument
“I bought an old Dulcitone on eBay many years ago and it features on In the Wake of Neil Gunn. The Dulcitone is an amazing instrument built in Glasgow in 1910, a keyboard instrument not unlike a celeste but the hammers hit various sizes of tuning forks.” It plays on Man Alone With Himself and Farewell Sweet Harmony too. The Herald named And in Light one of its top 100 tracks of 2020.
