Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 жов 2024
- Gordonstoun perform "MacPherson's Lament" in the FREESTYLE category at the Scottish Schools Pipe Band Championships 2014.
Freestyle offers the opportunity for schools to bring together the whole music department. Drums, guitars, basses, keyboards, violins, harps, bongos, anything ... all playing alongside the traditional pipes and drums. This was the first year we tried Freestyle at SSPBC and we saw some amazing examples of innovation and musicianship. We hope to see and hear even more fantastic performances next year.

We believe that every school NEEDS a pipe band. We believe a pipe band in a school can bring huge benefits to those pupils that take part and the whole population of the school. We are campaigning to have Highland Pipes and Drums taught in Scotland's schools on a par with other musical instruments.
I wish we had Scottish pipe bands in the States. That was the most wonderful music I have ever heard. Thank you so much.
There are plenty of Scottish and Irish pipe bands in the USA. Some of the best come over here to the U.K. to compete.
The combination of bagpipes with say a concert band (winds) or orchestra with strings is quite special (having played in one)! Also tricky to be in tune.
awesome!
What a build-up and performance!
Truly fabulous orchestration of a classic.
Great Stuff.
