  • Urm..The High A in this clip is just about perfect. There is still a school of thought that it's a good idea to have the High A sounding a tad flat. I don't subscribe to that. Listen to any professional player today. The High A is pitched exactly in tune with the rest of the chanter. That's just what Martin achieves here.

  • He missed an E gracenote in the triplet in the 1st bar of the 3rd part of Fiddler's Rally :P

  • Was that the only one you noticed? :)

  • Wow, those are nice sounding pipes. Very bright sound! Great video.

  • @Riperpiper

    It is almost perfect, it's a bit sharp because he seems to be overblowing the tiniest tad possible. It is very good though.

  • @rabnuds

    Ah, I'm sorry for not using the correct term. Thank you for telling me the name of the tune.

  • @PEIDanielScott Song???? I listened for the full 3:32 but didn't hear a song. The first TUNE however was called Duncan Johnstone.

  • what's the name of the first song?

  • Duncan would have been proud....

  • @vikkienguyen quite a lot was missed in the first 2 barsof the 3rd part.but no dis-respect thats a bloody hard part to play.

  • I play Duncan Johnstone with loads more grace notes than that (the way it is in the Scots Guards book.) Also It's slightly too fast in my opinion but not too bad.

  • ah lets not ask for their videos, they are probably already all over the internet as these people are most certainly world famous professionals. im going by their expert judging skills. but look on the bright-side, if these folks said it to the guys face he would just punch them.
