    I am a descendant of Reverend Willaim Murray (Penicuik) New Zealand and descendant to Dean Families pioneer era New Zealand, NSW, QLD... I cried with tears happily looking at this lovely music.

    Brings back many memories of my pipe band playing days. I have mostly Celtic and Gaelic blood. Last time I played my pipes was for my maternal grandmother, who was from Edinburgh, Scotland, at her funeral. We were very close. I sure do miss her.

I have heard the International Tatoo in Nova Scotia many times on TH-cam and saw them years ago and you two are as good as a Scottish bagpipe band .. please keep your talent going young Angels…. All of you are so talented and lucky to be so talented! I wish you all could have been on America’s Got Talent because you would get the golden buzzer. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏👏

    Watching this last year brought a tear to my eye ... Watching and hearing again this year, another tear only more so.... I hope I'm still around to shed more tears when I watch it again next year.
