Few musical instruments stir the emotions more than the Scottish Highland pipes.  From atmospheric slow airs and laments to rousing quick marches and foot tapping reels, jigs and strathspeys.  I have a very wide repertoire of tunes for the pipes and can advise you on selections from well known favourites to tunes with a special meaning for your occasion and for particular times during your function.  I will also endeavour to play special requests if suitable for the pipes.    Based on experience, I will normally play selections of tunes of my own choosing to suit the situation and mood and will also position myself accordingly.  I have to admit to having brought a tear of joy and emotion to many an eye and to have set people dancing the next. 

The times when I play are quite flexible and can be as you would like and I am used to adapting to the situation at short notice.  Much of my time is taken in getting ready, travelling to and from the venue etc so once I am at the venue the times I play and the length of time I am there is fairly flexible dependant on other commitments.  I also have a set of miniature pipes which is a smaller and quieter version of the Highland pipe, suitable for intimate indoor situations or for playing along with other acoustic instruments such as guitars, whistles etc.

I can come to see you (if not too far away) or let you know where I will be playing to chat about tunes and play through some selections.
