Skye Boat Song is a traditional Scottish folk song presented here in a reverent, cinematic vocal arrangement by Priscilla Wenzel.
The version performed draws on verses adapted from poetry by Robert Louis Stevenson, set to a traditional Scottish air. Long before modern adaptations brought it renewed attention, the song carried themes of exile, loyalty, and quiet endurance—images of flight across dark waters, guided by hope rather than certainty.
This interpretation leans into stillness and atmosphere rather than spectacle, allowing luminous vocals and restrained instrumentation to carry the emotional weight of the melody. The result is a timeless rendition shaped by history, memory, and human longing.
Offered for listeners drawn to folk tradition, cinematic soundscapes, and music that speaks gently and honestly to the heart, Skye Boat Song is meant to be heard slowly—like a story remembered rather than retold.
