This music is part of my life's playlist. I first heard it when it was used for the Dark Island radio thriller. I shared it with mother who also loved it. When she found out that she had cancer one of the first things she did was to ask a family member who played the bagpipes to play this at her funeral. Nancy did and as my mum's coffin was taken from the church this haunting tune played, bringing many to tears. Thank you Tress for this heart pulling version. Arohanui (much love) from New Zealand. I pray that you and all those you love come unscathed through these sad times.
My dearest Bestie, I am so glad that you came up here to the Pacific Northwest to share your lovely tunes! The way it carried across the water was magical, and I know all the locals loved it too! Thank you for bringing this ethereal energy to my home & heart. It was a treat to experience in person. I’m SO proud of you! ♥️🎶🌅
My absolute favourite song to hear on the pipes. Immediately takes me back to when we lived on the Outer Hebrides. The truly, haunting, enchanting and majestic "dark islands" in every sense of the words. Superb version.
Absolutely beautiful. The pipes capture the soul immediately. I think the slow airs are the most difficult to communicate (in the Spiritual realm) Thanks for your work.
Last video before I go to bed. I know I'll sleep in peace! 🙃 Love the burl right after the high A. Congrats to you... AND to your camera operator! Nice shot. Is this... "Dumbeldore's grave Island"? 🧙♂️
Just to set the record straight..the BBC programme was actually made and broadcast in 1962, and it was used as the theme tune Two sets of words were written to it later in 1963. One by David Silver, and one by my father Stewart Ross. The tune dates to c 1958, hence its earlier title, though rumours abounded about earlier origins.
@@DarkIsleBagpiper Perfect ! The same as mine, except I opted for the Celtic engraving. I went for the Acetyl version (as I already have a Blackwood set), so no worries about the possibility of their cracking or warping in the future. My other set was made for John D. Burgess (I have a video of this in close-up on UA-cam). Keep up the good work, and the best of luck to you !
I would like to ask you a few questions What chanter reed do you play as well as what Drone reeds you use I use ezdrone Drone Reeds with a Shepherd chanter Reed and I seem to be putting much more effort into my playing to get a good result. Any help you can offer would be appreciated

Alan Ross thank you for filling in all the question marks! I love knowing the history behind these tunes that touch my soul. 💗
Sorry you had to go through that and i know what like to lose someone that closed to you had my mother and my late wife
Carried my mama to her rest 9 wks to this, she would sing me to sleep with this as a child,, 😔
Really nicely played, for one of the best renditions of the song see Scottish folk band - North Sea Gas.
👍👍
😁😁😁🤚👍🏴🏴🏴

Pipes by McCallum with engraved alloy mounts ?
piperbob2 correct!! The engraving is called Victorian scroll and the pipes were made in 2004. They will be my forever set.

SeaWarriorSon love to you😘
OOOHHHHHHYES
I would like to ask you a few questions
What chanter reed do you play as well as what Drone reeds you use
I use ezdrone Drone Reeds with a Shepherd chanter Reed and I seem to be putting much more effort into my playing to get a good result.
Any help you can offer would be appreciated
