Highland Cathedral....................................Played On Tyros 2

My arrangement of "Highland Cathedral."
Highland Cathedral is a popular bagpipe melody.

The melody composed for the bagpipes was written by German musicians Ulrich Roever and Michael Korb in a Scottish style. It has been proposed as the Scottish national anthem to replace unofficial anthems Scotland the Brave and/or Flower of Scotland. It has subsequently undergone various orchestrations and had lyrics added in English and in Scottish Gaelic.




The tune was the Royal Hong Kong Police Anthem under the British rule which ended in 1997. It was played at a ceremonial lowering of the Governor's flag at Chris Patten's residence, Government House on the last day of British rule. Highland Cathedral is also Chris Patten's favorite pipe tunes as said by himself on a BBC Asia Today program It is also a popular wedding song.

I hope that you enjoy my arrangement of this great melody!!! Please feel free to comment, and to "PLEASE RATE" the video..."THANKS!"

The pictures are of various locations in Scotland.

Eine wunderschöne Komposition, geht schon etwas ans Gemüt. Hör ich immer wieder gerne. Wir singen es auch im Männerchor.

Hallo Jog2203,

Danke sehr viel mein Freund!!! Ich möchte Ihren männlichen Chor hören dieses Lied singen!!! Ich denke, dass dieses Lied eine hervorragende von einigen deutschen Komponisten geschriebene Zusammensetzung ist!!! Ich bin glücklich, dass Sie meine Version dieses Liedes mögen!!!

the bell in the begining rpobably brought out the true worth in the song. very good song but if i may make suggestion if you ever decide to update this video can you put a bell tolling periodically through the song?

Hi indoorin,

Thanks!!! Actually...I added the churches to coincide with the bells. I did think about adding it throughout my arrangement, but decided against it. Maybe I'll try it again sometime! ;o)

Best Regards,

Lieber Highland- Cathedral Freund,

den Song in einer Männerchorbesetzung zu singen - stell ich mir gewaltig vor. Aber wo finde ich dazu einen Männerchor-Satz?

Hi uMENEDES,

Thanks very much!!!

The Yamaha Tyros 2 keyboard is an electronic musical instrument. The music on all of my videos is played by me on this keyboard. I use a 12 track CD recorder to record with. So...all of the music I do is multi-track, (over dubbing), adding different instruments to each track. Most of the instruments on the Tyros 2 are sampled from their actual respective instruments, ie: trumpets, guitars, etc. I hope that helps!

Best Regards,

Dwayne
