The Lost Songs of St Kilda is an album by James MacMillan and Trevor Morrison, released in 2016 by Decca Records. The album contains modern recordings of traditional songs taught to Morrison as a boy by a resident of St Kilda, Scotland. Alongside MacMillan, the album features arrangements by Craig Armstrong, C Duncan, Rebecca Dale and Francis MacDonald.[1][2] The album reached the top of the classical music chart and, because it was released after Morrison's death in 2012, became the fastest selling posthumously released debut album in chart history.[3]
