I have been lucky enough have seen and heard it live a few times, done by local pipebands, that are no wear near this standard or even Edingburgh Tattoo standards. But regardless of how it is played it is a beautiful piece music especialy when it includes the brass instruments. I too would loved to have been there to witness this. If only I could find a professionaly recorded version of it live on you tube unfortuanatley the Adelaide tattoo is the best close up one I have found.
Visit Annan in Scotland for the Riding of the Marches, this is played by massed bands at the evening parade.on the first Saturday in July. It is a truly beautiful piece of music.
Seriously, this video just made me cry. I can't think of anything as beautiful and majestic as this just now. Oh how I wish I could have been there to witness this song live

htg04 i bet that ure irish just bcause ur country hasnt got any history apart from being racist arse holes doesnt meen that u should try and take our PRIDE away because u dont have any !!!!!!!
Wonderful stuff! Constantly amazes me the power of this instrument. It can stir the emotions and bring shivers down the spine even when listening on line. If you are lucky enough to hear massed pipe bands in a Tattoo it is overpowering.
Visit the Edinburgh Tattoo and hear the real thing. {I am not paid by the Tattoo to promote them - just a fan of Pipe music.}
How can you claim that the Scots came from Ireland you idiot. A small percentage of Irish settled in Southern Scotland whereas the rest were original Scots also named as the Picts.
Enough with your Irish shite Mr Deluded. Are you trying to tell me the Irish were original people and never came from another country? SHITE!
scots dont own the bagpipes. the scottish migrated to scotland from ireland, ireland also has it own pipes, Uilleann. "bagpipes" are worldwide, but scottish pipes are probly the best known. and my personal favorite.
Boy! Im French, and loves Celtic music and China...
And this performance draws tears from my eyes, knowing that it was written by Germans ... and performed on the day the UK gave over Hong Kong back to China, as Chris Patten, the last British governor of HK loved this tune...
The performance, I mean this performance, is tremendous
What a racket

Great lyrics!
Lonely the exile oer distant seas.
The home of their birth, gone from their eyes.
Bring back their souls oer the ocean breeze
To the land where their fathers lie.

Scots own the bagpipes, and please remember that the bag pipes are not Celtic, they're Scottish.
There's a difference between Celtic and Scottish.
