Donald MacPherson - 6/8 Marches - Cork 1990

[rabates123]

The first tune is called "George Johnston". Can't remember which book - it's not that hard to transcribe though. Magical playing - love the lower pitch too.

makes me proud to be 1/32nd MacPherson

Not a soul whispering or chatting with one another.... the kind of playing that entrances. One can only aspire.

Strange, my father's name is Donald Umpherson, haha.

He made a recording around '02, '04 the pipe he used looked very similar to the one in this video. It was R.G.Lawrie drones w/ R.G. Hardie chanter.

I love those pipes, could someone tell me what kind of pipes this is? Please tell me.

And is his kilt a MacPherson Modern?

[MurrayLoyalist]

His kilt is MacPherson Hunting. Does anyone know the titles of the tunes?

[cid68piper]

The second tune is "The Booths of Comrie" which he wrote. It's in Angus MacDonald's bk.1.

Thank you very much for the reference.
