After playing pipes for 48 years I wish I played with this much clarity, these 3 pipers displayed the best performance I have ever seen. They demonstrate that even the simple 2/4's & 4/4's can sound amazing played with heart and soul. I would have listened to this at least 2-3 times a week since I came across it.

Will try and make a very very far link here. Holy Roman Empire was part of some parts of Italy and Germany. Bagpipes were orignally made in Europe ( mainly Spain) and were brought to Scotland by the Romans. So maybe your family in Germany were playing them and maybe thats why you love them... :)

I loved Highland Wedding and Cameronian Rant as Hornpipes. I can imagine that after playing those tunes over and over in competition they would lose their shine and an otherwise bored player might start to see what else you could do with those same collection of notes. Very clever and entertaining, and oh, so musical. Well done Terry and Stuart!

I’m glad there was marches, strathspeys and reels etc. The usual trend of playing tunes, some of them not very tuneful, faster and faster for long periods of time is no doubt very skilful, but it can get really boring after a while. I wonder if any of these guys with their superb tone, provided the sound samples for the Blair chanter.

Fantastic piping, I competed alongside these people in the eighties and nineties, But alas their is one person missing, Gordon Walker.( Royal Highland Fusiliers. ) I do not think to this day, Gordon was guilty of the things said against him. I have tried to track him down ,if he is in the prison system, Acklington prison is quit close to me and I know some warders their, Gordon is not there now, although there was talk of a prison pipe band, just the thing that Gordon Walker would do. Best wishes to you all. If any of you know where Gordon is , Please could you let me know, just like auld days and a few wee drams before ye go on at Luss Games etc.

Blowpipe length has a lot to do with it. A lot of novice Pipers have their pipes set up at the mail order shop and don't bother to properly fit the length of the blowpipe properly. Just relying on your height is not a way to get a good fit. That's why you see a lot of novices with their heads turned to one side, or if the pipe is too short, they're hunched over.
