  • Pipe Master Charles Canning started the performance and then the rest of the band joined him out of the audience in different stages. At the end of the song "The Green Hills of Tyrol" the complete band are playing. The Drums and Pipes bands of the CTH and CGA joined together on Day of Reconciliation (16/12/2015) at the Waterfront, Cape Town, South Africa to entertain the crowd with their beautiful performance.

      When the pandemic hit in 2020, and people started showing appreciation for first responders , we had a man with his bagpipes playing through the neighborhood every evening at 7:00 pm and everyone came out and applauded. It was very very emotional . I’ll never forget it. 💟💟💟

    I used to do security in Glasgow a few years back,was a medieval night in an old church,halfway through night a lone piper played upstairs in top half of the hall,while everyone looked at the piper the rest of the band came out behind everyone,as soon as all the pipes and drums played the hall went bonkers,just an amazing part of the night🙏

    Good bagpipe music is hauntingly beautiful, also that band was more 'Diverse' than a new episode of Dr Who which was great because they were all there doing something they loved and not just because they ticked a box. My best wishes and thanks to all of them
    Edit - For those of you that don't know "Three Scotsmen and a bagpipe" was the official definition of a rebellion during the difficult times we shared with our northern neighbors.

    The pipes are best heard at a respectable distance. If you've ever been guest of honour at a Scottish Regimental Dinner, and they do you the honour of having three pipers playing for all they're worth no more than six feet from you, you run the risk of decibel overload.
