Written by two Germans, Highland Cathedral is a true masterpiece and favorite piece of music.

[@njordan2002]

always makes me cry and gives me goosebumps!

[@cammysmith7562]

Always thought that Highland Cathedral should be Scotland national anthem, fell in love with it after hearing it during the Hong Kong handover in 1997 and ever since it’s been my favourite patriotic song, this video just backs up how beautiful of a song it really is.

[@blueycaldwell4273]

Of course, the Scots would not want a tune written by two German men as their anthem, so they will stick with The Flower of Scotland which is named of course after Heather Thistle. lol. Great combination here isn't it.

As we say in Scotland 'That was a belter'. Well done guys, tears to the eye and a lump in the throat.

[@GeorgiaBoyChoir]

This is one of our FAVORITES to perform! Have you seen our other video recorded in the highlands of your beautiful country?

Land of our fathers, we will always be
Faithful and loyal to our own country.
In times of danger,
we will set you free.
Lead you to glory and to vic....tory.
...
Hail, Caledonia, to our ancient prayer.
In this Highland Cathedral,
let our standards, bear.
Joining, together,
with one dream to share.
God bless the people
of this land so fair.
Gone is the past, let us start anew.
Let this hope of peace, always remain.
Spirit of Scotia, be strong and true.
Then your children will smile again.
...
Rise, Caledonia, let your voices ring
In this Highland Cathedral
of our God and King.
Whom, joy and liberty,
to all, will bring.
Come; let your heart,
with love and courage, sing.
Whom, joy and liberty,
to all, will bring.
Come; let your heart,
with love and
cou........rage, sing.

This should definitely be Scotland’s national anthem!

Highland Cathedral is one of my favorite Scottish songs. As the father of a bagpiper and grandfather of two more, I find bagpipes to be stirring and the combination of organ, pipes and choir was magnificent.

[@BigfistJP]

Aber interessant dass es von Deutschen komponiert war. Interesting that it was composed by Germans!

[@johnblum6114]

Written by German's for the
Dudelsack

[@wskfanclever]

The term "bagpiper" is very funny for a German...:) "Dudelsack" too !

[@wskfanclever]

By the way, dear responsibles for the choir, click at least on some hearts beside the comments please...:)

[@Toelzerfanclever]

@@orgelspielen "Lump" = "Klumpen" auf Deutsch...:)

[@orgelspielen]

@@Toelzerfanclever And...?No, I really wanted to say lump.That was my intent.I am Canadian and know how to speak english.

[@Toelzerfanclever]

My comment was not meant as criticism but as a translation for German friends. I needed my dictionary...O:) That video is/was also topic at our FB-group account "Great Boys Choirs of the World" ! Okay ?
