    Well played young man. That was very entertaining and technically beautiful. Am definitely going to listen and watch this video many times as should all budding Piobaireachd players.

      Thanks Jack, he was a huge inspiration to me. Reference the pipe, it’s a new David Glen by Peter Weidig at Kintail. Really enjoying them 👍🏻

    is it just me, or is this bagpipe tuned incredibley high?

    Really great, but I don't understand why the 1st variation singling is played as even couplets when they are written as dot-cut....? Maybe it's just me, but I think the dot-cut setting sounds more interesting.

      This is the way that Andrew Wright was taught the tune by the Bobs of Balmoral and how he delivered it to me. The printed score is a mere guide in Piobaireachd, which doesn’t encompass the different styles and musical nuances that have taken hold throughout the centuries. I too also like the other setting but for me this approach balances nicely with the variation that follows. Not the most common approach though 👍🏻.
      Cheers
