If you don't find something to your liking we can discuss the particulars and come up with whatever is needed to meet the requirements of your occasion. I do take requests and suggestions, and have on a number of occasions learned new tunes that were favorites requested by my clients.
Note that in order to minimize file sizes many of these clips have been intentionally abbreviated. However, any music that you select can be performed to its full extent or be easily lengthened or otherwise taylored to fit your preferences or the timing of your ceremony.
Listen to the media player at the right for a few of the more familiar tunes or click on any of the "" links in the tables below to listen to MP3 clips of my piping. Use your browser's BACK button, if necessary, to return to this page.
The combination of pipe organ and bagpipes will create a unique and enhanced listening experience.
Sheet music is available below in PDF format for Highland Cathedral and Lament for Iain Ruadh.
NOTE - Please consider this ahead of time: Since the Highland bagpipes are significantly sharp from concert pitch, my Bb-pitch pipe chanter must be used OR the organ must be tunable (electronic) to be able to match the standard pitch of the pipes (A=480-ish). Appropriate time must be set aside prior to a performance for tuning and for a brief rehearsal with the organist (typically 10-20 min.). Once this is accomplished the result is a very stirring one and well worth the extra time.
Please watch the Highland Cathedral video on on my Videos page to enjoy the full effect!
