- The Sailor's Hornpipe competition for adult dancers at the 2019 Kenmore Highland Games in Perthshire, Scotland. This Scottish Highland Dance is common to many parts of the UK and was originally played on a hornpipe rather than bagpipes. It is one of the few Highland Dances that has its own costume for competitions.
Kenmore HIghland Games, held on the first Wednesday in July each year, is the only evening Highland Games in Scotland and is set in a beautiful location by Loch Tay in Perthshire.
That deserved a big round of applause. It looks an incredibly strenuous and difficult dance to do. Good job.
Calories were burnt that day
Gosh, they were both wonderful. Wish there was more hornpiping in the world!
Fantastic dancing. Too bad the announcer couldn't bring himself to shut up for 2 mins.....
Turn the sound off, simples. LOL
Such is the life of highland games
He's a Scotsman, being intrusive is what they do. And he sounds half-cut.
It has occurred to me since my original post that the announcer is just somewhere among the various events and likely didn't even know the dancing was occurring. It may even be that the individual who recorded the video is just standing unfortunately close to a loud speaker. I imagine he is just trying to keep people engaged in the atmosphere of the games. It's still regrettable that he talks over the pipes, but still a great video of dancing.
@@devilkyn1 glad you enjoyed the dancing. The problem, on this particular day, was that the loud speakers had been placed ON the dancing platform and, therefore, the talking became very intrusive.
Lovely dancing worth everyone's undivided attention. The announcer was obviously a volunteer who did not realize it is rude to talk when people are performing. So distracting to the dancers and disrespectful.
As a dancer you don’t really notice the announcer because your focusing on the music and beat rather than what other people are saying and quite often it’s for other events at the games and for entertaining the people there to watch.
@@mangotesco121 I guess not everyone is the same while dancing.
@@mangotesco121 As a dancer I must say that announcers are very often noisy and distracting.
Was trying to ignore him.
The dancing was expressive .
@@Irina_89user-zl7ve2wp2e I was a dancer for over a decade...so, I would find it rude myself. No one ever was allowed to do that when I was dancing...
Wish somebody could have found the mute switch for the guy talking over everybody...jmho
Thats the best hornpipe ive ever seen, both very good dancers but the dark blue dancer has amazing positioning .
He’s from Australia I saw him yesterday at atholl gathering
Brilliant performances by both dancers.
Superb !! Well done both of you. This was very skilful and very traditional. Both dancers excelled (obviously well trained and know their craft). Lovely to watch.
(best regards from England).
I surely can't be the only person to remember "H.M.S. Pinafore", with Sir Joseph asking the sailor Ralph Rackstraw "Do you know how to dance a hornpipe?" "No, sir" "That's a pity. All sailors should dance hornpipes."
My class performed the "HMS Pinafore" in my elementary school auditorium in the 6th grade. I still remember the lyrics with a chuckle
That would be HILARIOUS! ...Yes,
ALL sailors should be required to dance the hornpipe, officers, too. 🤣🤣
Alguien que haya llegado acá por tomas va a morir?
Si wn jajaj xD
Hslskehebdvzhd recién
jajaja la weá
Yo llegue porque andaba buscando la canción de Popeye el marino.
Fabulous dancing! Beautiful backdrop to the performance too! Love and peace.
But not the acoustic backdrop.
@@jonnybottle True!
This is my favorite video to watch! Beautiful dances! Bravo!
I'm learning this in my class. It's so hard. I feel like I'm never going to get it
have you had any luck?
You'll get it eventually. It took most people in my class months of practice to get the basics moves down, but it's so worth it.
You have to take the hardest bit of every step and practice over and over. I used to do 10x each side and do the step again. Eventually it became one of my best dances.
Same
Wow, they are good! Too bad that guy in the background kept talking. I wish they could of smiled a little bit.
Lisa80mba. One reason that they aren’t smiling is that they actually can’t hear the music because of the announcer. They are keeping an eye on the piper and guessing through most of this!!!!
*could have
This is a Pipe band competition by the looks of it. Lots of different events and things are going on at the same time. You might have the dancers at one corner, pipe band playing at another corner and the Highland Games going on at another corner.
My favourite dance is the hot pipe, won second the first time I competitively danced it
I miss is a little 🫶
Crikey, that was amazing
I'm just here because of this:
"In later years it was a tale told and retold, how the Lydia was towed into action with hornpipes being danced on her maindeck."
- C. S. Forester, A Happy Return
She killed it!!
#765 Dark Blue .. He WON 🏆( just my vote ) 👍💖
Yes, the other guy was quite good, but he wasn't as well coordinated as the one in blue. I hate proclaiming favorites and winners, since it somehow implies the party who doesn't get the nod is inferior. But it IS a competition, and it's like pro sports....a pro athlete might be the worst in the league, and he will still be very highly skilled. It's not a shame to come in second to the very best, really.
I love you Scottish people.
0:48 that squating movement of the boy is really nice to look at and I could imagine it being integrated in modern dances.
Ooh that’s the pump step and it’s really hard! I like doing it though but yeah it’s really fun to watch!
Had to look this up because I didn't recognize the name. Just felt my Mom hit me upside the back of my head 🤣🤣🤣
Eu amo a Escócia, a sua história e cultura!
I love Scotland, its culture and culture!
Vine aquí por el mago pirula
Wonderful!!!
Is magnifique.
Well done!
Great dance ..typical Scot would not shut up lol....less Whisky mate more tight lip on air..super dancing love it...Ray in Norwich city
We much prefer male dancers 🏴🧑🏼🦱✅
Aguante tomas va a morir, llegue acá por el Edo
Like si llegaste por tomas va a morir XD
Морячка понравилась. Егоза.
That big piper player must be: Ross!
Very good and interesting to see.
Thanks.
I believe that the "hornpipe" comes from a naval tradition - English or Scottish? - I'm not sure.
The "hornpipe" here in Ireland is very different - with only foot-steps and no hand/arm movements.
i didnt know this was a thing...
That looks fun.
Wowie!!!
Is it me or are the songs played differently by different musicians?
This is better at 1.25 speed : )
great
The announcer is very distracting. I don't think he would appreciate an announcer talking constantly if he were up there.
I tried, and lasted about a minute. Dude, shut UP!
Very. Good
i SHOULD be asleep but nooo i’m watching THIS i need help
Anyone here while reading Shogun?
Yep! Toranaga can bust a move
Put a plug in it, matey!
Doing the hornpipe daily took the place of calisthenics.
Japanで、1番最初にhorn pipe danceを踊ったのは、宇和島の殿様の 伊達宗城さんですと、A Diplomat in JapanのSir Ernest Mason 佐藤さんは申しております。😊
凄い運動量だ、 ふぅ、疲れた。
pirates after they just finished plundering a ship and raiding the grand navy HQ
Bet she's fun. lol
Aaaaw, has his mommy dressed him up like that?
Serious fitness needed, must have kept sailors amused trying to learn hard steps, on a tilting deck.
I'm not sure what all of that blabbering about a tug-of-war has to do with the dance.
Who thought it would be a good idea to have the commentator yammering away?
Does anyone know what the first tune they played is?
The Liverpool Hornpipe
@@1950accordionman thank you so much, I’ve been looking for the name for over 3 months
@@vladislav_aleksandrov2761 You are most welcome
Kkk bacana ahah dança de marinheiro.
How does thos competition work
would be better without the constant announcing, jfc
👍👍👍
The announcer 🙄
great but the announcer!! Not distracting at all. 🙄
Во морячки... 🦆✌️
Great dance but overattentive commentary
It is quite annoying
Not overattentive, he wasn't paying attention at all. He was just blabbing on about other things, which is distracting and disrespectful to the people dancing and the audience. Of course, they may have been doing this all morning with different contenders, and only a small part of the crowd is watching this actual event, but still...he could have done all his speaking in the periods between "bouts", and if he had to talk during, he could have kept his dialogue on the subject of the dancers.
Didn't notice until someone pointed out the lipstick, but the one in white is actually a woman. I'm almost positive. Look at the face, the fine structure of her cheeks and nose, the thin eyebrows. Wide hips and woman-like thighs, slender hands, and it looks like a swelling at the breast. The other guy is obviously a male. I think the sailor dress is just a requirement for the competition, but they can't (or won't) make it male only, especially since people able to dance a good hornpipe are not a dime a dozen these days. I might be wrong, and it's just a very feminine male wearing lipstick, but I doubt it. Many a trans male would kill to have a feminine body structure like that, but most of them are not so fortunate, and if they did have one, they probably wouldn't be hiding it by dressing up like a man.
Her cheeks are a definite giveaway...:D
man wtf is this comment
@@crunchyycarrot359 I know, it's permeating everything! So done with this #%@%^
The bloke on the left has clearly been in the navy too long; he's wearing lipstick! ... he has grown a great bum though.
Obi Wan Kenobody I cant tell this is a joke or not
@@cjf3031 ... 😐
Wow a navy’s gay joke. So original lol
@@vladislav_aleksandrov2761 Great comeback, homie. That must have expended some effort on your part.
Look closer. That's a female, bud. Look at the facial structure, the hips, her breasts, especially at the end. She either has short hair or it's done up behind and under the cap. I'm almost positive. That explains the lipstick and the nice bum.
0:58 what my grandpa expected when i told him im gay
(the guy on the right)
Inconsiderate talkover!
