The massed pipes and drums play Highland Cathedral on the esplanade in front of Edinburgh Castle, during the 2006 Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo. #edinburghvideos
So schön, diszipliniert und herrlich anzuschauen mit einmaligen Instrumenten, die es nur dort gibt und mich in ihrer vollen Schönheit immer wieder begeistern !!
I am 53 years old and an englishman who had the great pleasure to serve alongside the Royal Scots in the first Gulf War A Sqdn to be precise and this moving melody takes me back to the desert as if it was yesterday, Always brings a tear.
It makes no difference who has written this wonderful piece of music. The words can only inspire and help bind a nation, it looks forward and not backwards !!! a national anthem that anyone would be proud to stand up for and the sooner it becomes Scotlands national anthem the better.
And billie connolys banana song..lol…no it’s a great tune, but yea cannae beat oh flower of Scotland, just go to Murrayfield and see the song played when we face England, now that’s a passion for you.
@@josephlambe2796Englishman here but with a lot of family from Scotland you can’t fault the atmosphere of flower of Scotland every single time👌🏻also had highland cathedral at my grandads funeral down here last year
This was composed by two Germans, Ulrich Roever and Michael Korb for the 1982 Highland Games in Germany. As a Scotsman i thank you very much for giving us such a wonderful composition.💙🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙
This song was composed in 1982 by the German composers Ulrich Roever and Michael Korb as an anthem for the Scottish Highlands Games in Cologne Germany. Read more on Wikipedia.
Heard this song for the first time at a funeral of a firefighter in Brussels Belgium. A lone firefighter with a bagpipe walked in front of his colleagues carrying their fallen brother whilst playing highland cathedral. The sound went through bone and spine and I have never forgotten about it ever since.
We are having this as we enter the crematorium for my dad’s funeral I. February. As a true Scotsman he would love it and The Flower of Scotland at the end. 💔💔💔
Schottland ist mein Land. Ich träume schon schon mindestens 30 Jahre davon dort zu Leben.Übrigens….Highland Cathdedral ist von 2 Deutschen komponiert worden aber mein Lieblingslied ist Flower of the Forrest.Greetings from Burscheid (Germany)😊
Was played at My Dear Mum's Funeral too......She was born bred Brisbane Queensland Australia.....but her Mum & ancestory born/bred Aberdeen & Mum was a Champion Highland Dancer here in Oz........brings lump to my throat always
Was there at this Tattoo, i think at the time it was the most sets of pipes there, was great, still gives me goose bumbs, played at my mums funeral by a lone piper ,(
This is the most magnificent piece of music I have ever heard. In the first occasion I burst into tears, something I'd never experienced before. I play it at least once a day as apart from the music, the sight of my beloved pipes, drms, uniforms and Edinburgh Castle is breath taking, but I am reduced to tears every time, tears of sheer joy. Thank you.
@@lebeninnorwegen6951 Thank you so much! I will make a note of it. Some years ago, I hunted online for the composer(s) and nothing came up. I imagine a lot of people think Highland Cathedral is public domain, and now we know for sure that it is not. Good to know.
Illo tempore tempori busillis con papà avrei dovuto andare in scozia edembra a vedere danza delle spade e visit Glasgow e scozia what a pitty in compenso quando avevo 3/4 mi fece arrivare tramite suo amico un kilt verde blu riga gialla clan non memento uno dei primi dieci kilt tartan di scozia giravo x casa 240 MT q a Tergeste ho ancora la tasca marrone di cuoio portafoglio Pitti scoti Caledoni mai sottomessi da Roma unico popolo vallo Adriano 2 secolo dc maximus
This tune made my heart pound.as the daughter of her dad born inPeterculter Abdeenshire and great grand parents from Scotland on my mother's side.l just can't get enough of this music Thank you for airing it.
These images relax me and make me happy in this sometimes mad world. Thank you for being on You Tube. I know exactly where to go when I feeling sad or angry. X💗💗💗💗💗
We play this for the entrance procession every year at our Episcopal church in Texas when we Kirk the tartan for the celebration of the first American bishop, Samuel Seabury who was consecrated bishop in Aberdeen. Of course we can only have a single Piper.
Wonderful, the anthem of the magnificent Scottish Ambulance Service, I was so proud to serve
Mon the fucking Scots. Best wee country in the world. Love ma home. Scotland the brave💙💙💙
If this isn't played at my funeral, Im not going.
Ha Ha.
🤣
😊
Highly emotional, beautiful music! There’s nothing to beat the captivating sound of bagpipes!
I absolutely love everything about Scotland!
I'm glad you enjoyed it. 👍
This was my mum's song entering the crematorium on Friday she loved pipes and drums

Roy Williamson wrote our national anthem, great song but just doesn't cut it.
This was written by 2 German gentlemen who happen to love the pipes! God bless them!
That's an odd detail to this great song.
12 month ago we played this at my Mum's funeral. Such a beautiful song and will never tire of listening to it...
Truly a beautiful, heart stirring song. For a reason I cannot explain it reminds me of my Dad who I lost in 2021.
In memory of my dad 🏴🏴🏴 thank you Germany for a beautiful song ❤❤❤❤ sending love to all nations
Goosebumps and tears so beautiful and hart warming, great and something to be very proud of ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you.
Just think, this beautiful piece of "Scottish music" was composed by two Germans who loved the Highland bagpipes.
There is nothing, absolutely NOTHING, more rousing than the skirl of a mass pipe band.
Ich finde es persönlich einen der schönsten Stück. Ein mal gehört, vergisst es nicht mehr! 🙋🏻♀️🇨🇭
It is a lovely tune and setting up at the castle.
Bravo.. this is Outstanding performance and amazing melodi.. love watching this beautiful video.. Thank's for sharing ❤️

Wunderschöne Melodie ,so magisch so kraftvoll .
No culture on the planet can imagine like this.
👍
This was played at my grandmas funeral,a second LT in the wrens in ww2,she signaled to Churchill that the Bismarck had sunk the Hood 🫡
First the Germans sink the
mighty H.M.S Hood and then these Germans write this beautiful "Scottish" piece of music.
Quite strange.😉
My favourite Scottish tune...and the last piece of music played in Hong Kong, by the British in retreat as China took over the island!
Aye it's always been my favourite too.
@@EdinburghVideos First in last oit
@@kimwatson9000 As always.
And written by a German
@@fi9178 No, it was two Germans.
I want this played at my funeral 🏴❤️
It's booked for mine too. 👍

Me too
Though I am French I deeply love Scotland. This was the last music played at my beloved nan's funeral.

Makes you proud to be so privileged to be born and bred a Scotsman. 🏴
I pleteley agree. I am german and grew to love the country of hill and glenn sp I am a bit proud that this winderful hymn has been written by Germans
Well I’m half Scottish on my father’s side. I feel like this is my happy place.
This was played as the curtains closed at my late husband’s cremation. This finally broke the whole family, we were all crying as we walked out.
This song makes me shed a tear, proud to be British
One of my two favorite pieces, the other is the Gale.
Aye the Gael is another good one. 👍
This song makes hearts warm in this cold time long live scotland

Love this song, when I'm driving this song will be played in my car. Serveral times
Try not to crash the car. :)

How to explain your Scottish.
God's blessings
This piece helped me through some tough times.
This was played at my fathers funeral
The perfect replacement for Flower of Scotland as Scottish National Anthem
No i dont think so it was written by 2 Germans , no offence to the Germans its a beautiful tune but out of respect for our fallen heroes,no
Have attended 5 Tattoo's so far, I hope i can add another one day.
I've just booked my tickets for this year's tattoo. 👍
Excellent stuff.
We play this for the entrance procession every year at our Episcopal church in Texas when we Kirk the tartan for the celebration of the first American bishop, Samuel Seabury who was consecrated bishop in Aberdeen. Of course we can only have a single Piper.
It seems like he also studied Medicine here in Edinburgh.
So beautiful
Emouvant❤
Who wrote it is very important as it would inspire the words!
We want this for our funerals.
It's perfect for that and will be played at mine too. 👍
It is so moving and I often watch even though I end up in tears. I love it. Thank you. X
