Well done both bands. Who is the piper 1st row far right (not the fellow with the gold adornments? I thinkk he may be related to my family. Anyone know?
There is simply no music or sound like the sound of the bagpipes ,I fill up with strong emotions whenever I hear the slightest note. This production is totally thrilling. Thank you. ❤❤❤😊. LKFrom Canada.
This is at least the fourth time I have watched this video and I get teary eyed every time. I hits my Scottish inheritance from my dear mother. There is no more beautiful music. Thank you. LK from Canada. ❤❤😊
I'm from the United States and I love hearing the Scottish play the pipes especially when I had watched a movie called The AMAZING GRACE The sound of the pipes and all of the other musical instruments was so profound that I got chills just to hear it play but for those like myself who are not Scottish must see that movie The AMAZING GRACE watch it all the way to the end until you see the Scottish play the song of AMAZING GRACE It is so beautiful to hear
Soon it will be banned for being racist, bearded yellow teethed men will also say its offensive to their religion, stop being romantic , the Scotland we had say 50 years ago is long gone it is now an festering multicultural craphole
Great Video, like others have noticed. I watch a lot of 🇬🇧British Military Band music on RU-vid, Usually in 💂♂️London💂 This was a special presentation - there's nothing like the sound of the 🏴Pipes & Drums🏴 combined with a full Military Band!!! 🎷🥁📯🎺Thanks! Sincerely, Nathan in Chicago 🇺🇲
LUV THE MUSIC ! THANK Y❤U....🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 Brings back nice memories of my grandparents on my mother's side, her 'mum' was Irish & her dad was Scottish. Grandpa would play the accordion or the bag pipes at his big farm in Upstate New York standing next to a paster fence & the horses & cows & other animals would come running to him to listen. I'd feed them some treats.😊 My dad's side is English & I was born in New York, U.S.A. -- How much luckyer can you get with wonderful buds like that to ❤ had in your life...as I'm very proud of all of them.
Greetings from the US! The sounds from the bagpipes certainly took " my breath away" Thanks for the up load. I was at Edinburg for my niece's wedding 5 years ago. This certainly brings back beautiful memories!
I have some scotch blood now I know why I enjoy the pipes and drums.. I went to. Highland high school . We had scotch pipes that were played. Last week part of the school burned. No one was hurt 😢.
I LOVE SCOTLAND ...NEVER BEEN THERE ..I WOULD LOVE TO..IMAGIN WHAT HAPPEN IF I FINF=D MY SELF IN ADENBRA..LOVE YOU SCOTS ,,LOVE WILLIAM WALLACE ...WE NEED ONE LIKE HIM IN THIS WORLD
Highland Cathedral is one of the most beautiful, most moving pieces for the pipes to play - and the rest of the band to join in with - hauntingly beautiful, tear jerking. (around the 16 min mark)
I watch this video every time I can , my mother was a Hamilton ,she gave me her Scottish blood this the love of the music. I can never get enough of it. Totally beautiful. Thank you. ❤❤❤😊. LK from Canada.
Amazing especially the Ps and Ds😊 the only thing I see wrong with this is the amount of vehicles parked on Castle Esplanade it should be a car free area let the splendour of Scotland's capital city shine out!! btw I went to Army school of piping in the castle 1974 I was Argyll and Sutherland Highlander🏴
Thank you for serving. Bro was a piper with The Cameronians and 19th Royal Artillery so I appreciate all that goes on behind the scenes. Too bad our Scottish Regiments are amalganated or disbanded.
If I wasn't an African I would have been very proud of been a Scottish For one reason or another I kind of resonate the Scottish culture very well infact I quite understand the garlic very well because its my native language I'm a mandinka by tribe & garlic is very similar to our language I genuinely love the Scottish
I think all garlic are mandinka check their culture And ask a mandinka to tell your about Edinburgh what it means & other Scottish name's it's derived from mandinka language & also their culture just go to Mali & investigate if you don't believe me
Politicians cut all the bands - which was a tragedy, because the bands were our medics, who we desperately needed in action. They all had /have to pass their medical tests etc and they staffed the Regimental Aid Posts in war. Also they recovered wounded back from the Sabre Squadrons/Companies. So they were never "decoration" or surplus , they were and still are vital for morale. Just we don't have enough of them any longer.
@@dianacasey6002 All part of the last big defence review aka cuts. Now we rely on borrowing people from the NHS, who are desperately short staffed anyway. There was merit in swapping medics with the NHS, because the NHS gained experience in sorting trauma, but swapping is one thing, and staffing, even on a temporary basis, are two different things.
@@meyrickgriffith-jones3908 Sad sounds like a complete cluster f. I love a full pipe band. I lived in the Royal Mile as a child and sometimes the pipe band would play after rehearsals at the Tattoo the drums would start and then the pipes would begin. We nearly fell out the window with excitement.
All I remember is it may have started during The Perfumo Scandal in England. Politics of the day. The Cameronians were disbanded in 1968, rather than amalgamated (choice of Lt. Col Baynes). Now theScottish Regiments are nearly all amalgamated with The Royal Regiment of Scotland (formerly The Black Watch) but at least are recognized by titles ...this pipe band is 2Scots - formerly Royal Highland Fusiliers.
I have just watched the pipes and drums in this video & once again they have come up to the same standard as all the other bands have been, it's great when they play Scotland the brave & all the other tunes as well, but I like when they play Scotland the brave followed by the flower of Scotland, -what a team the pipes and drums are.
Absolutely phenomenal performance absolutely magnificent! When I think of the walls of Jericho falling in the biblical story of Truth I envisioned warriors like this marching around the walls for 6 days and on the seventh day the walls of Jericho fell! There was a city surrounded by a wall no one came in or out at all the people who lived inside were wicked God said this is how we're going to fix it Make seven trumpets from the horns of RAM and March March at my command! Not by might nor by power but by my spirit saith the Lord on the seventh day because of Mighty warriors of praise like this the walls of corruption fell. Nothing inspires greater faster the musical message of Faith family and freedom like the bagpipes! Legendary! Thank you for sharing this amazing performance truly inspiring!
Wish I could see more of that lead snare for the pipes and drums ... lookin' good... I wish the drill (especially the countermarching) was a bit crisper.
If you don't get a lump in your throat or have a tear in your eye when you're listening to the pipes and drums, then there is something wrong with you.
By crikey, if you want to mess with a man's emotions give him some o' the pipes. Want him to fight? Gi' him the pipes. Want him to remember? Gi' him the pipes. Want him to cry like a baby? Gi' him the pipes. Oh, the pipes, the pipes, I love hearing you! If anyone has a link to a pibroch worth watching and, above all, worth listening to, let me know.
Another good video, thank you. I wish, though, the bands would throw away their Andy Stewart songbook and play more of the older regmental pipe tunes. As for Highland Cathedral - if I were there I’d be jumping off the battlements.
Green hills of Tyrone is a very old tune from Rossini opera willaim tell a Scottish captain of the Crimean war rewrote it for the bagpipes so it is not an Andy Stewart tune he just changed the words about 1964 to suit himself even my mom said he nicked the tune as she recognised it by its real name
@@janethadley9162 Yes, I knew that the tune wasn’t written by Andy Stewart but I didn’t know the Rossini connection, thank you. AS just diminished a fine pipe tune with lyrics just as he did with Lochanside and Black Bear and worst of sll, Glendaruel Highlanders. Nothing against AS as an entertainer, I just like pipe tunes without words.
I totally agree but the worst is content id doesn't recognise that the words that are rewritten are contrafact the tunes are public domain I've had a big argument with RU-vid and I only know of the Green hills being done by AS
Intriguingly, given its mix of sad-happy, "High Road to Gairloch" got quite a bit of exposure in the context of Her Late Majesty's funeral. As far as I can gather that's 17th century. It's my absolute favourite, I must say - hair stood on end with that one - impossible-yet-real mix of pride, joy, love and sadness (2:19 at ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BrV-2NmSEXE.html). I like the above "Scottish Emblem" - which I heard from the Massed Scottish Bands on Horseguards in 1990 (37 Regiments from home on abroad on parade!!! - 22:17 at ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tfIfKNbQkzc.html). Apparently it's by Major Archie Ellis and is clearly not old at all. I've always loved the 79th's Farewell to Gibraltar - but I did not realise until this day (thanks Scipionic!) that it goes back to 1848. I could always sense the power of that tune and now I know what it is we feel when we listen!! Maybe you know this story, but: 1) there is RELIEF in it because the Regiment expected to go to the disease-ridden West Indies but instead got posted to Canada (much more like home for the Jocks) and 2) there is security in it, because when the troop ship went up the St Lawrence in fog the Captain told the band to play so that others would know the ship was there - the tune saved their lives, AND has a foghorn-like backing too it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This version ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-e9TGYC-5Wzk.html is ROUGH a bit, but then this is the streets of Glasgow and it's supposed to sound just like that - utterly authentic and irresistible, and you can FEEL both the joy and relief and the sense of security in it. How wonderful is that? (Holy Spirit wonderful). Also like The Barren Rocks of Aden, though that is not so old ("composed by Piper James Mauchline when a detachment of the 78th was stationed in Aden (during the Aden conflict 1964-67). Pipe Major Alexander Mackellar re-arranged and named the tune.”)
