Some want to know about what reeds you're playing, mate. I'd rather know about the grandfather you honour with your wonderful playing. Tell us about him.

If your grandfather was a German soldier during WW II then, despite the despicable Naxzi regime and if he fought honorably and did his duty to his Nation then he was an honorable man. Governments come and go, but an honorable warrior is an honorable warrior. The Pipes are brave music for brave men. And brave men - truly brave - wil always rally for freedom.

This is an excellent rendition. If you are indeed the original performer of this particular arrangement, then my congratulations to you. You really were able to capture the very essence of this song perfectly. Well done.

My mum had that so I know how you feel.Do you play the pipes yourself? If not maybe you could learn them and play your dads' pipes I think he would love that.

Although your grandfather was a german, he fought bravely through the war for his country and you have that to be proud of for your family. god bless

The accoustics were fantastic and your pipes tuned well.That is the best vid of this tune I've seen and heard.God bless. Your Grandfather would have been proud.

Good - it is a lament - to the fallen - and whether you knew him you have done him proud. 4 mates lost but not forgotten - would be honoured. Thank you, the lament will always be so,

[bahoonies]

I would never have thought of this tune as a tribute to a fallen German soldier but it is just perfect. It is beautiful, heartbreaking and a wonderful lament for your grandfather and all the fallen. Well chosen, well played, Andreas and very, very well done.
