The massed pipes and drums play Highland Cathedral on the esplanade in front of Edinburgh Castle, during the 2006 Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo. #edinburghvideos
I am 53 years old and an englishman who had the great pleasure to serve alongside the Royal Scots in the first Gulf War A Sqdn to be precise and this moving melody takes me back to the desert as if it was yesterday, Always brings a tear.
So schön, diszipliniert und herrlich anzuschauen mit einmaligen Instrumenten, die es nur dort gibt und mich in ihrer vollen Schönheit immer wieder begeistern !!
It makes no difference who has written this wonderful piece of music. The words can only inspire and help bind a nation, it looks forward and not backwards !!! a national anthem that anyone would be proud to stand up for and the sooner it becomes Scotlands national anthem the better.
And billie connolys banana song..lol…no it’s a great tune, but yea cannae beat oh flower of Scotland, just go to Murrayfield and see the song played when we face England, now that’s a passion for you.
@@josephlambe2796Englishman here but with a lot of family from Scotland you can’t fault the atmosphere of flower of Scotland every single time👌🏻also had highland cathedral at my grandads funeral down here last year
Was played at My Dear Mum's Funeral too......She was born bred Brisbane Queensland Australia.....but her Mum & ancestory born/bred Aberdeen & Mum was a Champion Highland Dancer here in Oz........brings lump to my throat always
My Uncle suggested this for my Dad's funeral 10 years ago. I still bawl my eyes out when I hear it. If this is not played when its my turn - I aint going!
We are having this as we enter the crematorium for my dad’s funeral I. February. As a true Scotsman he would love it and The Flower of Scotland at the end. 💔💔💔
Schottland ist mein Land. Ich träume schon schon mindestens 30 Jahre davon dort zu Leben.Übrigens….Highland Cathdedral ist von 2 Deutschen komponiert worden aber mein Lieblingslied ist Flower of the Forrest.Greetings from Burscheid (Germany)😊
This song was composed in 1982 by the German composers Ulrich Roever and Michael Korb as an anthem for the Scottish Highlands Games in Cologne Germany. Read more on Wikipedia.
Was there at this Tattoo, i think at the time it was the most sets of pipes there, was great, still gives me goose bumbs, played at my mums funeral by a lone piper ,(
@@lebeninnorwegen6951 Thank you so much! I will make a note of it. Some years ago, I hunted online for the composer(s) and nothing came up. I imagine a lot of people think Highland Cathedral is public domain, and now we know for sure that it is not. Good to know.
We play this for the entrance procession every year at our Episcopal church in Texas when we Kirk the tartan for the celebration of the first American bishop, Samuel Seabury who was consecrated bishop in Aberdeen. Of course we can only have a single Piper.
I wish the talk over was at the end,instead of the beginning, stop talking about the music and just play this immaculate incredible brilliant awesome fantastic lovely piece of endearingly perfect music,
If this isn't played at my funeral, Im not going.
Ha Ha.
🤣
😊
Highly emotional, beautiful music! There’s nothing to beat the captivating sound of bagpipes!
I absolutely love everything about Scotland!
I'm glad you enjoyed it. 👍

There is absolutely nothing sweeter than the sweet sound of the pipes ❤️
I couldn't agree more 👍
This was my mum's song entering the crematorium on Friday she loved pipes and drums
How lovely, she would have been really pleased. I love this piece haven grown up with Scottish music and dance …
Mine to hits a raw nerve
@@donaldtaylor2881 it's all still fresh for me too she only passed on 3rd of June xx sending you healing thoughts and prayers xx

Truly a beautiful, heart stirring song. For a reason I cannot explain it reminds me of my Dad who I lost in 2021.
This was written by 2 German gentlemen who happen to love the pipes! God bless them!
That's an odd detail to this great song.
This was played at my dad's funeral. Every time I hear it, it moves me to tears
Was played at My Dear Mum's Funeral too......She was born bred Brisbane Queensland Australia.....but her Mum & ancestory born/bred Aberdeen & Mum was a Champion Highland Dancer here in Oz........brings lump to my throat always

👍
Ich finde es persönlich einen der schönsten Stück. Ein mal gehört, vergisst es nicht mehr! 🙋🏻♀️🇨🇭
It is a lovely tune and setting up at the castle.
I was at tattoo many years ago and that tune was played by the pipe band and a military band beautiful
I have tattoo tickets for tuesday night and am looking forward to it.
My Uncle suggested this for my Dad's funeral 10 years ago. I still bawl my eyes out when I hear it. If this is not played when its my turn - I aint going!
Ha Ha. 👍
I'm very proud of being Scottish listening to this makes me happy
Enjoy mate. 👍
