I hope you enjoy viewing !

Piobaireachd ("pee-brock") is the classical music of the great highland bagpipe. It is less commonly referred to as Ceol Mor, meaning Great Music. It is an entirely different from the category of music known as Ceol Beag (or Little Music) that includes marches, slow airs, and the various idioms of dance music (jigs, reels, strathspeys, and hornpipes).

Piobaireachd tunes are often several hundred years old, dating as far back as the 1400's. It is distinct from the other forms of Celtic music in that it is only traditionally played by a solo piper on the great highland bagpipe.

Many pipers consider Piobaireachd to be the highest form of bagpipe music and also most satisfying and challenging to play. The world's most prestigious piping competitions, such as the Gold Medals at Inverness and Oban, are won by pipers who compete by playing Piobaireachd tunes.

Strange to feel homesick for a place I've never been to.

[jeanmunn]

Oh well I'll get back one day God willing, I emigrated as a lad of nineteen in 1965, I've been back on holiday a number of times but I still miss Scotland the land and the people.

Thanks again " glenzboyz " I love your wee clips, appreciate your kind efforts.

@nicraith

You may be very interested to know that in Irish Gaelic, the word for a Gaelic speaking area is a "Gaeltacht". In Scotland we call the highlands the "Gaeltachd", pronouncing the d as g. I think you may have some hints of Irish pronunciation, my friend.

[nicraith]

Rather confusing. I had some Scottish Gaelic lessons too, when I was a member of the Seattle Gaelic Choir. Maybe the pronounciation I learned was also a regional thing. My teacher studied Gaelic with a teacher from the Isle of Lewis, or Eilean Leodhais. So the little I know is only of that region.
