Cried like a baby at the funeral of 6 of my fallen comrades in Falklands war. This was played and made me feel proud to be a Scotsman. We were in our full Highland dress at the war cemetery in the Falklands. Sent a shiver down my spine
I missed the Falklands. I left the Royal Marines in 1980 after serving 10yrs between 42 and 45 Cmdo.
I was gutted I missed it BUT, I shed a few tears when watching the fleet leave for the South Atlantic and I cried buckets when
I heard that 4 of my oppo's lost their lives, even as I write this I am shedding tears.
my dad was a chef at the depot Pirbright left in 77 but still knew men who served and fought in the Falklands

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
@@Woo5ter From the wonderful poem by Robert Laurence Binyon 'For The Fallen'. I think about those who laid down
their lives every day.
as a brazilian,i hope argentina pay for what they done in the falklands that always were British
Here you have a Dutch conductor, with a multinational orchestra and a Scottish pipe band playing a piece of music written by two Germans in order to evoke Scotland for a German Highland games and then adopted by Scotland as one of her own anthems. This is what you create when we come together
Well said John Paul! Cheers
Yup, just brilliant, isn't it.
It sure is cooperation & mutual respect very European. As a proud Scottish person this music is beautiful I’m greeting ( crying ) peace & love to the world fae Bonnie Scotland. 💙🏴💙.
John Paul Lusk. You perceptive person, im Black Watch 42nd (RHR) You made me cry.
"Flower of Scotland" is our anthem.
This makes me feel patriotic for a country I’ve never been part of
Scotland does that to you.
I can tell you being from said country I'm sitting here with tears streaming down my face. The pipes, the band, it just does something to you.
The pipes are just a part of being scottish , a absoloutely love it , From Glasgow Here , & wow the pipes just make me stream tears , honestly no other feeling like it in the world . 🏴🏴🏴🏴💙💙💙💙
I lived in South Africa for 40 years, and I love the national anthem!
Come abd visit, you'll like it
I’m English and proud but this sends a shiver down my spine my spine…Thankyou Scotland❤
It was written by a German
@@grahamelliott6041 yes but it's played on Scottish pipes also written for the German Highland games inspired by Scottish culture and traditions
Tune based on a German folksong.@@craigkelly4278
The German guy wrote it will living in Edinburgh with a view to reflecting his overwelming experiance@@grahamelliott6041
@@grahamelliott6041does it matter?
I don’t remember how many times I’ve watched this,as a Scotsman it still knocks the stuffing out of me,such a powerful-beautiful song.
3:13 gets me everytime mate. 🏴🏴🏴
Do you know I am English, but I just love the bagpipes, and this is amazing, I love it so much, I heard it many years ago but it still love this so much..
Think this is the most beautiful thing I have heard
Brings tear to my eye and im not even Scottish but German, beautiful song
Stuart Wardlaw me too it is so beautiful and very emotional !!
Playing this at my mums funeral this Saturday. Then taking her ashes home to Scotland. RIP mommy, you will always be a beautiful lass.
Really sorry to hear of your loss. Sure your mum will be glad to be home..... x
May the pipes always sound for her
Take care
God bless
I am sorry for your Lost 😔. May she rest in peace.
My four children and I carried my husband, their father, shoulder high to this on his final journey. He was just 52. My beloved children were only 23, just 22, just 20 and 18. I am so proud of them.
He may have the luck to live on in four beloved children. May he rest in peace ... all the best for you and your kids from germany. At the age of 49 with children aged 24 and 22 I think I know how you feel ... stay strong. There's always a future until the last day.
He's waiting for you in the next room. fellow scot i assume, my heart goes out to you all.
❤
May the good Lord bless you and keep you. M. M
Love to you from my family
Had this played at a homecoming ceremony having returned form Afghanistan back in 2012. Following the church service we then marched down the Royal Mile in Edinburgh, which was packed; tourists, locals, I looked to my right and saw the All Blacks squad (they were there to play Scotland that weekend) the whole mile was rammed... just incredible. What a piece of music.
My grandmother's funeral was today. My cousin played this on the pipes and it was genuinely something of true beauty. I'm so grateful this piece exists
❤💐
Just saw this tonight. I'm sure your Grandmother was smiling down when your cousin played for her. May she rest in peace. Much love to you and your family.
❤
May your grandmother Rest In Peace ❤️ I’m so sorry for your family’s loss
I am so sorry for your loss. I'd be really proud of you for arranging this beautiful piece of Highland music at my funeral, if I was your grandmother. 🙏 🏴
This song will forever bring a tear to the eye of any person who calls Scotland home. Albu Gu Bràth.
and to some of us who's ancestry is Scottish
And even to those that are not scottish
Written by two Germans, Ulrich Röver und Michael Kolb....not just for Scottish....just for humble and honest people who loves bagpipe’s music....and I tell you( for if you do not know) ,bagpipes are not a property of Scotland or Scots
@@pemacal57 do you feel better after this little rant?
@@steffanrobertson3541 Yes, of course..and thanks for worrying about me.
As well as being played at funerals, my daughter requested this masterpiece for walking down the aisle, it was awesome. The lady on the bagpipes deserves a lot of credit after recovering from cancer.
Very stiring music love it
I won't be going to My funeral if they don't play this
Want this at my funeral. 4:00
@@tomedy_official 👍👏👏🤣🤣
When was Monae diagnosed with cancer?
Proud to be Scottish. Still brings a tear to my eyes. Beautiful
I’m a South African living in Australia and I’ve never been to Scotland but the pipes always bring a lump to my throat and a tear to my eye. The emotion in that sound is just too much for a human heart 🥹
@@Nienpet you definitely need a wee visit to our beautiful little country. The Hills, lochs n glens are spectacular, its Breathtaking Beautiful x
If your lucky you may see The Loch Ness Monster x
Countdown for myself to naturalise my nationality for Scotland... Wish me luck for my wedding day... 😻😻🧔🏻🏴
I'm Polish but still brings tears to my eyes
Я живу не в Шотландии, но как и вы, восхищаюсь этой музыкой! Настоящий талант не имеет национальности, это мировое достояние😊
The woman with the bagpipes gives the music so much power, passion and emotions this piece and even know I get goosebumps. She may not be Scottish but she had a mountain to climb and she overcame it and came back Stronger than ever.
As a Scot myself, I LOVE this piece and she does this justice!
On ye go hen!
The woman playing the bagpipes is Andre Rieu’s wife.
@@RandGerald that’s not true, that’s Manoe Konings. He’s married to Marjorie Rieu unless this is new information I have not seen. However Manoe is an incredible lady and always gives it her all. Cannot wait to see them play again.
Just shup n listen ya bam
She is the very best
@@RandGerald That will be news to his wife then. Sorry but her name is Manoe Konings. She also plays the clarinet, saxophone and guitar. She also sings, she is of the Andre Sisters. She dances, and when not on tour rides around on her motor bike. She is the one who makes sure everyone is on the bus when they go on tour.
It really should be Scotland's national anthem. Beautifully played.
Far bettr than that dirge "Flower of Scotland"
@@jimwolstencroft8441 True, but I would much rather have that than Scotland The Brave! :)
I understand the sentiment but it's unlikely , it not really being a Scottish song.
I agree many times better
My mom, died of Cancer today. She was 58. I have this and a few other songs I’ve been playing on repeat but this one sort of sets the tone for the mood today. I as a Police Officer hear the pipes and drums at funerals gets me sappy but this brings me a sense my momma is at peace, resting eternally. For that I am also at peace. Smiling while typing this with lots of tears knowing my mom would also very much approve of this. Thank you for this beautiful song.
My condolences, I believe she's in peace now and is still there to listen to this song together with you
My condolences to you and your family 🕯🥀
My condolences. May she RIP🙏
🌹🌹🌹
Our memories are the CUSHIONS OF LIFE. GOD BLESS...
The reaction and emotion of the crowd, when the wall of sound hits, is spine tingling. Love this.
This is something special, that crowd doesn't know how lucky they are!
Me and my wife were in the crowd watching this in Maastricht in 2017, a wedding anniversary trip and this was the song she walked up the church ailse to 2 years before it.
We're both Scottish and I was wearing my kilt that evening, I did not have prior knowledge of the set list and this was an amazing surprise!
As a Dutch guy i have to say.. this is one off the reasons i love Scotland........
Crying everytime I see this. Now on my way to Maastricht to see it live! Dream coming true.
if they don't play this at my funeral I'm not going
Who are they? You've to decided it first. Have u told them?
Bwahahahahaha...love it!
Right there with you!!!
im not going either
Couldn't agree more
Every time I hear this, tears flow. Brave women in he fight with cancer.
If this doesn't make the hairs stand on the back of your neck or bring a tear to your eye.. Something ain't right ❤🏴
You right,
Totally gives me shivers every time I hear this tune. Glad I'm Scottish
Ich bin immer wieder fasziniert, wie dieser Mann mit seinem Orchester einfach unvergessliche Momente schafft.
Watch and learn.
The ladies beautiful smile at 2.07 lifts my spirits everytime I watch this
Yes a beautiful smile and a lovely looking woman
Without a doubt, the best rendition I have ever heard. So proud to be Scottish.
@@BigSkippy1263 Everything about Scotland is beautiful. God bless Scotland and the great Scottish people. Sending love wishes from the Atlas mountains of North Africa, home of the free Amazigh people.
@@BigSkippy1263 🤣 brilliant 👏
@@BigSkippy1263 well the majority of your fellow Scotlish subjects voted and betrayed mother Scotland being a nation again to stay a colony of England . Scotland the only colony that voted to stay one
@@colonisedtartan9539 Correct but our day is coming.
You should hear Caledon singing it. The words are so moving.
as a scotsman there should be a love button cuz i love this version
Aye..
If you think this is better than the Royal Dragoon Guards version you're off your head. That woman can't play the bagpies propperly.
@@mrf1019 i didnt say it was better
I just cannot get enough of this tune. It is a wonderful piece of music.
This is the most exceptional rendition of Highland Cathedral that I have ever heard. Ever.
Princess Marina College pipes and drums were the best I ever heard long gone due to government cuts in the armed forces budget but that is going back to 1988 started of lone piper then lone drummer then built up from there.
I am a French woman born in the southwest of France. So, I am culturally very far from Scotland. Very very far... But God, this music is moving. My little French heart just melted and I must have wiped away tears of emotion.
(Sorry for my very bac English language).
See if you can find La Boeme on the bagpipes - it's French, and even more beautiful! 💜
Your English is perfect my love
@@michaeluden2848 Thank you !
the sound of my native Land GOD BLESS SCOTLAND
God Bless Scotland from someone south of the Border.
As an 18 year old Englishman I was attached to the Royal Scots Dragoon Guard A Sqdn for OP Granby 90/91 as a recovery mechanic in the REME.This song always takes me back to the desert looking up at the stars on a cold black night wondering if I would ever make it home back to my family memories I will take with me to my grave.
As a Scot who married my beautiful German wife in Weinheim there was no more perfect tune for her to arrive at Bürgruine Windheck to. What a day. What a tune. Thank you German composers of a piping classic in the Scottish tradition.
Klasse! Freu mich für Sie!!!! :) Wirklich ein tolles Stück Musikgeschichte! Nicht weniger als das! Und natürlich hier wundervoll inszentiert!
The fact that two German guys could create something like that inspired by my country is humbling and beautiful.
Scotland is just awesome and we Germans feel kind related to you. Similar minds 🙂👍
Nothing creates a friendship as quickly as the disliking of a common thing...
As a German I feel a strong affection for the Scottish people and I don't know why
Vielleicht weil zwei Deutsche dieses Lied komponiert haben? 😃
Because your in our royalty
Wow, the magic of music. It stirs such deep emotions in humans.
I can't watch this performance without crying. In fact I'm finding it hard to watch to the end. As soon as the bagpipe comes in, tears start to roll down my cheeks. Great piece! God bless the team that made this possible. Andre Rieu Thanks!
I am looking this video now and i crying now soooo hard !! 😢😢😢
Me too love it flower of Scotland is so defeatist I’m sorry if I upset some people but that’s how I feel !!!!
I've just watched this vid for the 1st time although i'll be seeing Andre again with my 2 daughters in April '22.
My beloved Dad was Scottish....to all of you who have loved and lost 💙
Me toi
Bagpipes do the same thing to me. When they play in choir I can't help but wet my face.
Just think of the HUNDREDS of hours of planning and practising and TENS of THOUSANDS of dollars, that have gone into this 4 1/2 minute performance! Worth every penny. Thank you!
Denke nur noch an dich mein süßer Engel für immer und ewig dein Hartmut ❤❤❤❤❤
I cry rivers of tears every time I watch this. It is so powerful. It is almost beyond words!
This made a grown man cry! I miss my home; Glesga! 🏴🇺🇸
Estokolmo
Same :(
Haste ye back...Sending love frae Scotland. x
Thought it was Glasgae.
😉
Me an'aw.
The women with the bagpipe had a fight with Cancer and she won that fight and came back to the Music she a amamzing and brave women😊
What can you say? Scottish lass are tough ones.
@@nurlindafsihotang49 She isnt Scottish
@@oddball1711 so what? she is still playing the bagpig beautifull
Mt. Everest ist only a mountain. She climbed it so often and back and pl;ays music! Never better!
That woman is Manoe Konings and she is from Maastricht btw..
🏴 7 more Pipers in Highland dress, the Saltire, the Highland drums and the emotions of everyone listening. Powerful, indeed!
This takes my breath away and give me shivers everytime I hear it. When the bagpipes kick in it’s mind blowing. I’m Scottish not very patriotic but this sure does make you proud to be Scottish. Phenomenal piece
No matter how many times I listen to this, it always brings tears to my eyes, simply beautiful!
Same. I’ve come back here many times.
Me too.
Thank goodness for UA-cam.
I only lived in Scotland till the age of 8 and even I was in tears listening to this...very beautiful and powerful performance 💪🏻💕
How are you doing today my name is Travis
You can take the girl out of Scotland,.........but you can NEVER take Scotland out of the girl,
It really doesn't get any better than this. One of the best versions of this incredible song you will ever listen too.
My best friend & brother died a few weeks ago & hearing the bag pipes the emotions connect me to the unforgettable past & the blessed hope of knowing that he is in heaven with our Lord.
Being a scotsman I heard this the first time in Amsterdam 2 years ago at one of his concerts. Its on my list for my funeral.
It was written by the Huns you dolt
As a fan of Scotland, it really makes me cry
That was beautiful version of highland cathedral
I never tire of watching this and I’m not even Scottish.The lady beat cancer and learned to play the bagpipes.Her passion for music is wonderful.Bravo.
Really
?
Just evrything about this is beautiful and the lovely cathedral behind her is just somoving
@@divakarsiva3663 Yes
Me too love watching this
I am from Indonesia, and today at 31 December 2023 I watch and hear this marvelous song , so deep and touchable
❤❤❤
Every time I hear this hymn I cry...it takes me home. I had it played at my mum's funeral and felt such a depth of emotion and pride. No matter where ye be Scotland is deep in your soul...in your blood.
Absolutely beautiful rendition...pipes so soulful...hymn to God from his people of the Isles.
You can take the lass out of Scotland, but you will never take Scotland out of the lass!
May your mum rest in peach. Bless you.
This just breaks my heart, It was played at my partners funeral 1 week ago. Brings tears to my eyes when I hear it.
My.profound condolences on your loss..I listen to this music over and over again and every time it brings tears to my eyes.
The beautiful woman at 2:05 minute.....look at the expression on her face.....no words needed!!!!!!
I'm irish and this makes my heart skip a beat such an amazing piece of music 🎶 felt my eyes filling up with tears ❤ the bagpipes are such a beautiful instrument 😍

Manoe just makes me shed tears every time I watch her play this beautiful tune...Wish my wife was still alive to hear this with me......
I Love My Country 🏴
Das ist der Hammer ein Traum , was einen die Tränen in die Augen treibt so schön . Danke dafür
Ich empfinde ebenso. Ich bin immer wieder fasziniert von diesem Orchester, das unvergessliche Momente schafft.
This is a beautiful rendition of "Highland Cathedral". Seeing the audience members overcome with emotion was beautiful.
Im Scottish and it always makes me more proud to hear this amazing performance
I could listen to this piece of music and performance over and over again it gets me everytime I'm not Scottish but what a fabulous piece of music and what a performance by the soloist on bagpipes
Beautiful rendition of this Scottish gem reminded me Hong Kong was a British colony. Every year pipe bands from British Empire performed all kinds of unforgettable / memorable bagpipe music in the largest stadium. Sadly I miss those wonderful / powerful bagpipes no longer in HK.
The time Governor Chris Patten leave the Government House hours before the handover ceremony
Nothing, I Say ABSOLUTELY NOTHING on the Internet is as awesomely uplifting and inspiring as these Andre Rieu concerts!
I could t agree more. His concerts are absolutely fantastic.
If ever a man knew how to put on a show,he is that man.
I have been to two of them one with my father and one with my sister both are very cherished memories
I'd love to take my mum to one someday soon before too long ..
@@SuperRonor ft t
Amazing and lifts your spirit so high and makes you feel so energetic and good afterwards. Proud to be scottish so I am 🏴🏴
Aye too right lad 🏴🏴
The woman playing the bagpipes is amazing. She can play several instruments.
Absolutely love this piece of music, it brings tears to my eyes everytime. Just had to listen to it today after watching the funeral procession in Edinburgh on tv. Just want to say...from a Brit🏴...THANKYOU SCOTLAND 🏴 for looking after the late Queen Elizabeth II so respectfully 🇬🇧 You've done yourselves proud 🏴
LONG LIVE THE KING
She was our Queen and we loved her. Long live the King, long may Charles reign.
“From a Brit thank you Scotland”?
That’s like saying “from a German, thank you Europe” 😂😂😂
@SteakBaked99 not really..Scotland is a country on its own in it's own right..Europe is a number of countries so not the same at all.🙄
The lady playing the bag pipes as had cancer but recovered look at her now fantastic xxxx
Stunningly beautiful. Absolutely a masterpiece. Bless the Scots and their pipes!
Music is the key to the soul..If this doesn't evoke feelings, then you don't have one. Brilliant arrangement Andre. Thanks for all of us in Scotland
I've always believed that music makes my soul dance.
I'm at a loss for words........ This is Absolutely Magnificent and Breathtaking!
this is one of the best versions of Highland cathedral I have heard. tops to andre reiu rieu and the lady playing the bagpipes and the orchest, beautifully done
Why does Highland Cathedral always move me to tears?
I love your music! I'm so lucky to be able to watch you and your fantastic orchestra, on television. Please keep playing and come to visit us here, in Lisbon. A big hug from Sónia
I discovered the video as a suggestion from UA-cam........now a 49-year-old man is sitting here crying like a little child......very nice piece of Music. 🥲🥲🥲
❤
I have watched this video so many times over the last few years! Someone had a CD with it on, so I googled it!
Played at my fathers funeral
His favourite piece
What an incredibly beautiful piece of music this is? And VERY Beautifully played by André Rieu and his fabulous orchestra.
As and Irishmen all I can say is Stand Proud my Celtic brothers and sisters
It's a Scottish tune.
@@moragforsyrh6893 hence why I said “Celtic brothers and sisters” Celtic refers to the cultures of Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Cornwall, the Isle of Man, and Brittany. It encompasses all of those them
What a great thing to say.. I love how all the CELTS have a spiritual connection 🏴🏴🇮🇪
@@moragforsyrh6893 woooosh
I'm only 28 and decided this will be played at my funeral 🥺 absolutely beautiful 😍
🏴❤️
Thank the Lord for such talented musicians and of course Andre for bringing them together and sharing them with the world. ❤
Very humbling and very moving such a powerful song
The lady with the bagpipes who fought cancer and won that fight she came back to her passion for music to get that message accross
I just love this woman,she is so talented,she is funny and sings as well.A superb musician.all round.
There is such magnificence in the sound of a bagpipe. I wanna sit beside Loch Lomond, with this on Headphones and tears of joy rush down my face
I lost my mom last year as a family we have no connections with Scotland but mom liked the sound of bagpipes and the flower of Scotland with a piper. When I was told that we had a piper for moms funeral this was the first thing that come up when I searched for music. Mom love Andre Reiu so highland cathedral seemed the perfect choice to play at her funeral.
Andre plays the most beautiful music in the world and I love all his stuff but when the lady plays the bagpipes ( so far heard her play 4) it brings me to tears and puts me in a HAPPY place. Never stop the music especially Andes because I'd just die if I couldn't hear his music every day.
Wow..... you can feel this inside you're heart, so much emotion, beautifull!
1:55 YOOOOO!!!!!!!! LOVE THIS PART! ANDRE RIEU, YOU ARE THE BEST!
And this was written by 2 Germans! Thank you so much. Vunderbar.
How can this not bring both tears and joy to your heart?
This music gives me goose bumps. This orchestra and pipes are just wonderful! Manoe U r just gr8! Bless U.
I felt like some thing is so powerful, this music gave me so strong vibration, right now I am not anger , not greedy, so peaceful and I am feeling like somewhere in Heaven,I have never felt like this before so nice,
Thank you so much
Boot Abd me too !!!!!!
I love this so much and cry like a baby every time I hear it! ❤🏴
This would bring a tear to a glass eye - COME ON SCOTLAND
I'm English and proud but this song is so powerful and beautiful I'm jealous its not one of ours. I like English anthems, like I vow to thee my country but they all seem to be religious hymns We definitely need some new ones.
This gives me total goose bumps each time I hear it. As for this extremely talented lady has gone through a severe treatment for cancer and has fought back to do what she does best gives us the great love of music. Bravoooooo.
Ein Dudelsack ist ja schon was, aber wenn eine ganze Gruppe aufspielt, ist das Gänsehaut pur. Psychologische Kriegsführung
A bagpipe is already something, but when a whole group plays, it's pure goosebumps. Psychological warfare
Aye, it is indeed a Goosebumper highland music!!! I am no Scotsman, but the bagpipe notes sparks every nerve and spine cords. WOW, a masterpiece!!!
What an experience to listen to this. Pure Scotland!
The pipes always send a chill in my spine. Glorious music!
We had a piper at my mom's funeral 2 weeks ago as it was her wish and was our favourite tune, we would cry every time we heard it. Special memories ❤
I imagine that my heart would've exploded if I'd been there. I'm quite overwhelmed as it is, just listening to this recording.
