This is a fine presentation which I can appreciate from both Scots and Irish music perspectives. Just after leaving P/M of a US grade 4 pipe band I fell in with Irish trad players who soon adopted the band name "Innisheer" (I think the misspelling was mine) after this tune which was our first. I was starting uilleann pipes then, and now make them for a living. If I were still playing Scottish pipe bands I'd love to play this arrangement. Thanks for sharing.
It really is, isn't it ? Have you also watched clip (3) of the concert - "Lullaby" which was composed by the band's director, Alisdair McLaren. I must have played the clip over a hundred times to try to write it down and learn it !
No I haven't Bob but I will check it out. Thanks. I have this tune on a CD performed on the Uillean pipes.I first heard it on the GHB when played by Spirit of Scotland and I felt very underwhelmed by it. This version I really could listen to all day.Perhaps it is the slower tempo that makes it sound more heartfelt and less mechanical than when I previously heard a pipe band perform it.

And thank you for lowering lights at the end.. nobody wanted to see glistening faces dampened with tears.

Is there a tab for this
Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by "a tab". (You can always contact me by email (scotspipers@hotmail.com)
@@piperbob2 Sorry, Tab short for Tablature, sheet music, I have since found it but thanks for responding so quickly
@@cosmickeef I had thought you meant a TH-cam tab of some kind - glad you've found the written score now.
do you have the music sheet for this music? i meant for bagpipes
