i had this song to walk down the aisle at my wedding on the 8th august 2003, brings back loads of special memories, everytime i hear it i get goose pimples all over , its a tune that you cant get fed up.
Truly an amazing arrangement and performance; the bagpipes with orchestral background is divine, heavenly, magnificent, tremendous, and incredibly moving. This is my all-time favorite piece of music -- it brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. Thank you for posting it on UA-cam!!
The Royal Irish Regiment always take it at the correct tempo and play with passion and fluency and it just sounds fantastic. Come back to it every year.
I heard the Mormon Tabernacle Choir perform this piece of music for my first time last Sunday, and instantly fell in love with it. It's such a moving piece. There's something so soulful about the bagpipes. Having a full choir and a full orchestra with it was great, too. They kept building and building with more bagpipes, more orchestra, and more voices until it filled the hall. Wow! And it is even more powerful LIVE! Thanks for such a great performance!
Love this so much. 15 pipers played this a few days ago at the menin gate. The sound was very moving and we all had tears in our eyes. We will remember them.
This song was played when Class of -03, National Police Academy of Norway, graduated. Will never forget that, sends chills down my spine every time I hear it!!!
absolutely stunning! That was one of the best arrangements I have heard of Highland Cathedral, this tune gives me goosebumps everytime I play or hear it on pipes with a band or pipe organ.... Just AMAZING! Excellent job!
Hello from Germany ! It is a wunderfull piece of bagpipe-music !!! Das ist ein wunderbares Dudelsack-Stück! Da bekommt man eine Gänsehaut nach der anderen!
@2qwerty i got it played at my dads funeral too. then flower of scotland. we al felt so proud of being scottish & proud of my father and always will my friend
Do it! Although I'm a side drummer in my local pipe and drums band, I'm told it's one of the most difficult instruments to learn. We have a couple of young fellas learning with us which I think is great! I mean, here we are in the digital age of guitars and what-not, and the young still want to learn a traditional instrument such as the pipes. Bloody brilliant I say. :)
Go for it! You will enjoy this experience very much! I started piping in my high school's pipe band... a lot more girls play the pipes than in the past, so no, it is not wrong, good luck!
Will be playing this song on friday night for the closing cerimonies for the National Cadet Biathalon competition, i play 1st trombone, and this is my favourite song to play, even though it murders my chops, great sound quality
Thank you for posting this. My school, Shorter College plays this as the processional song at our graduations. It certainly makes you feel proud to hear this as you go marching in to receive your Degree. I'll be getting my 3rd and final degree at Shorter next week. Can't wait to hear this song again at the ole Alma Mater.
We're playing this song next week for a representative from London when he invites our high school band to play in the new year's day parade in London next year! I'm so excited!
This song was played at my dining out in my Battalion in a lovely German hunting lodge, built by Hitler and we had just defeated another dictator in Iraq. The haunting sounds will be with me as long as I live, thank you to the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards and The Black Watch (Royal Highland Regiment) musicians, never forget it. Awesome and the lads and lasses here are not doing so bad themselves. God bless you wherever you are.
That has to be one of the best versions of Highland Cathedral I have heard in a very long time.Well done bandspeople.Heaps better than some other versions here on youtube!!!! Yes I am a bagpiper and I know what I am talking about.
Not generally a fan of the pipes but love hearing this song an the flower of scotland. Great video. Watch next time scotland rugby team comes out the tunnel, highland cathedral is always played then. Nearly brings a tear to the eye listnin to this an i dont even know why lol
Yes, this is a Scottish song. Michael Korb one of the composers studied the pipes in Berlin under a pipe major of a scots regiment stationed there. He travelled to Scotland in the 1970s and continued learning the pipes. He composed several pieces specifically for the Highland Great Pipe in traditional timing and dedicated to places in Scotland. A fantastic German composer composing for a Scottish instrument for Scotland, that is reasonably Scottish.
Yes there is words to it.If you type in lyrics to Highland Cathedral on the internet you will get them. That's where i found them as we played this at my fathers funeral.
Super Lied, dieser schottische Marsch. Erinnert mich an meine Zeit im 3. Schnellbootgeschwader in Flensburg. Dieses Lied war die Ein- und Auslaufmusik Schnellboot S 42 ILTIS.
As a German I am proud this phantastic music hast been written by two fellow countrymen.
we played this song with our orchestra in the church it's such a great song
Dont know why, but Highland Cathedral played on the pipes always brings a tear to my eye.. A really moving piece of music, thanks for sharing.

Great version of Highland Cathedral. This is by far the best pipes and orchestral version I have ever seen...... wow.

Simply the best rendition of Highland Cathedral I have heard.
Absolutely amazing, I'd listen to this masterpiece 1000 times without ever getting tired.
Respect from Italy...
Totally agree.
The Royal Irish Regiment always take it at the correct tempo and play with passion and fluency and it just sounds fantastic. Come back to it every year.

WOW! Those Pipes hit my heart and soul like a rocket! Yeah... I had the tears rolling down my cheeks! Beautifully played!
I picture myself walking in Glencoe and hearing the piper by the side of the road playing this with such reverance. My heart is happy
absolutly beautiful. Highland Cathedral is by far one of my all time fav. songs on the pipes. I don't play it as well as these guys, but still.
Brilliantly played.

First time I remember hearing this was at a Met Police passing out ceremony at Hendon about 11 years ago. Loved it ever since.

There is a wonderful handbell arrangement of this tune by Turner and McChesney. It uses 3-7 octaves of bells, oboe and snare drum.
My old regiment.Beatiful.
@newz2me28792 good for you. i am an irishman in the south. this is great. i enjoyed this very much.
Beautiful music. Great regiment.
It makes it even harder now as my old training depot St.Patricks Barracks where i learnt all this has finally closed its gates.
Our band's going to be playing this song with the local police bagpipers. This song is ALWAYS stuck in my head after playing it! x3
Majestic!!!!!!!!
Very good songs for theme's like the WW1. I'm love it. The Road on Passchendaele and this one are my favorites. Good work boy's, good work! :')
