  • The highly requested Highland Cathedral on the Great Highland Bagpipe.
    I asked my patrons which highly requested tune I should post a full version of first. They chose this one. Consider becoming a patron for exclusive videos, and early access to full tunes and originals.
    Www.Patreon.com/PiperAlly
    This is also my first outdoor playing session of the year. Windy!
    Playing on and off for just over 2 hours. They stayed very stable.
    Pipes:
    -1940’s Robertson drones
    -Elevation chanter from MacLellan Bagpipes
    Reeds/Accessories:
    -Adrian Melvin chanter reed
    -Henderson Harmonic drone
    -Canmore Synthetic bag
    And the Duncan tartan kilt, of course.

    My late 2nd wife loved this song and we had a piper, who was a retired Pipe Major of the Royal Regiment of Scotland, I believe p, play it for our wedding. It was awesome. I’m so glad that we recorded it. I love listening to it whenever I can. Thank you.

    There is nothing like the bagpipes leading one to war. We were involved in a war in the 70's and our pipers would play Cock of the North every time that our troop train stopped at a station. Very inspiring.
