Accompanied by some of the most breathtaking music the country has ever heard, musician Phil Cunningham brings to life some great musical traditions.

In the last of his two-part journey through the music of Scottish Christianity, Phil Cunningham looks back at 500 years of Protestant praise. Why the Scottish Kirk was left with only a dozen tunes, why hymns were banned, and why the great canon of Scottish traditional music was ignored by Scotland's Church. From the Covenanter music of the killing times to the crusades of American evangelists including Moody and Sankey, and Billy Graham. With performances by Emily Smith and Mick West.
