Simon Fraser University Pipe Band Medley 2005

[daitken10]

Emancipation Jig. One of the best!

[Maddplaid]

Farrken Fantastic

[pipertroy]

I know think they should have gotten rid of the ending real it kills the mood.

[noosaho]

thats probably one of my fave medleys ever!

[keydetpiper]

The jig Emancipation is a great one; it's ok on its own but in a band setting with harmonies it's a great effect

[Stanman94]

anyone know what the slow air is called?

[pbdrummer94]

Air in B Minor

[kungfupanda502]

@pbdrummer94 Where can you find the music?

[CapoeiraPiper]

every one of their medleys are just so good. they always sound just right in terms of tune selections.

[MacDonald989]

Post a video of yourself playing a more difficult medley.

[MacDonald989]

That's why they are world champions. Grow up you 9 year old punk.

[MacDonald989]

They are world champions dumb ass

[okatoman]

[okatoman]

awsome medley ....u gotta luv that canadian muscial....78ths..Alberta...To­ronto...Peel,,,

[gramyboy]

this is their best medley yet, much beter than their 2008 medley, they even played better here and only got 3rd in 2005

[SPARTANDUDE123]

omfg 5:35-5:38 best part.

[SPRBagpiper]

It's cool, but I think the chord suspension/resolve at 5:22-23 is out of this world! This is my favorite set of all time.

[Cooleejit]

Tremendous. Robbed of victory that year in my humble opinion.

[bassdrummer91]

i'm really glad to see that they have taken the tenors back to slings.. i hate playing tenor with a carrier on it restricts your arm movement to a certain degree.

[sbdrums2]

J.R. is a boss

[brentberry1]

They don't mess around ...

[Bigirishcunt]

The little Blond Tenor drummer is a babe!!!

come to daddy!!! he's Irish and he plays the Pipes *laugh* sorry :O)

[Bigirishcunt]

What a Band!!! I Love them!!!

[awqad]

I don't think it could come anyway better . a very attacking rythm played in well harmony

[SPRBagpiper]

It's quite nice, but to my ears and taste there seemed a discrepancy between the build-up of the reprise and Dr. Macphail's Reel. They had brilliant music in the reprise, growing into something which, I think, transcended the current world of piping music, but then it's like the composer's attention span expired and he/she/it/they ended up copping out with the reel. Excellent, quality technical and musical execution throughout, but I felt let down at the end.

[Dthepiperavid]

gotta disagree with u on that one, builds up and shoves that reel right in your face, which i think is really really good.

[SPRBagpiper]

That's one of the marvelous things about the piping world; so much of it is subjective. What one person calls "in your face," another calls anticlimactic. Still, the proof is in the pudding: 3rd over all.

[keydetpiper]

[kingman124]

What band do you play for, I'll have a look for your band we're playing Juvenile take a look for a band called Robert Malcolm Memorial. And they do get new drums every year it seems including this year with something different try to pick it out.
