Mozart on the Rampage w/ The Pumpkins Fancy Seven Pipers Band and Highland Dancers

In celebration of our 5000th view of "Steam Train to Mallaig," we give you one of my favorite sets from the 2008 Gaslight Theatre show, "Mozart on the Rampage and the Pumpkin's Fancy!" Our Highland Dance group joins the band for a fun time. This is another in our series of "Camera Two" videos. Our Main view camera went on permanent vacation sixteen seconds into the show, so everything is viewed from next to the piano pit.

one set of pipes is hard to tune, 12 or so, nearly impossible, as is shown here

@apologeticsman To further complicate matters, this show was performed in an airconditioned building, but the only place to tune was outside in hot temperatures and high humidity. It did not take long to go out of tune inside. This number was shortly before intermission, so it had been a long time since tuning. Sorry. Tiny venues, gotta luv 'em!

@Nesizen macfourie listed in the comments below about two months ago says he has the scores if you're interested.

@rikelprice

And a fine piper he must be, they don't only sound good but seem to really enjoy it. something missing in many of the top grade bands.

BTW any chance of getting a copy of "Mozart...."

Thanks

@LesliePiper I am sure that HeatherSkelter22 and the other dancers are glad you enjoyed it! My eldest son was one of the pipers.

@rikelprice It's obvious they're taking liberties

but with taste and VERY enjoyable

Thanks

@johno100100 Yes it was a choreography, that's why. I'm one of the dancers.
