I just heard this played at the 40th anniversary memorial for Police Sgt. Donald J. Sowma, killed in the line of duty on November 19th, 1976 in Cypress, California. The tune seemed familiar, and I asked the piper, retired LAPD Officer Cliff Armas, the name of the tune. He said simply "The Bells of Dunblane", and I was suddenly transported back twenty years to the news of the horrifying tragedy at Dunblane School in Stirling, Scotland, and tears sprang to my eyes. I'd nearly forgetten Dunblane School. This tune is all the more beautiful as a remembrance of the promise and potential lost that day.
Texas state Capitol building was a good place for this. This song should really tear into anyone's heart, especially if you know what it signifies. JJG 42 Yr. Tx. LEO
Liked, but not to my taste really much needed. OTOH, I've thought for many years that pipe tunes' rather harsh tonalities would sound very well wrung through an electric guitar.

I could listen to this on repeat on repeat on repeat on repeat repeat on repeat on repeat
Same here - looking for every YT performance on it.
Thanks for posting this
If this does not touch your soul then I doubt you have one.
sadly the tale behind this tune is tragic
Many are the laments for the pipes.
A timbre well suited to both sorrow and war.

God bless how he holds the refrain. I miss this...
Tres émouvant. Mon coeur vibre à l'unisson de ceux qui ont vecu cette terrible tragédie. Florence, amie de Bretagne.
RiP to the beautiful children and teachers of Uvalde who were lost one year ago.
