Why are the Great Highland Bagpipes known across the whole world? The reason seems to be that they stir in the listener an incredible strength of feelings; ranging from the heroic, inspiring men to go into battle against terrible odds, to a sense of awesome beauty, where feelings of wonderment, pain and joy can take hold.

On this CD we present the pipes in many different settings, from massed bands to solo chamber pipes, from the traditional to the modern contemporary. A truly all embracing album.
