The Pipes & Drums of Scotland

by Grampian Police Pipe Band

Overview

This exceptional collection of marches, reels, strathspeys, hornpipes, and airs perfectly encapsulates the rich tradition of Scottish piping. The Grampian Police Pipe Band is tight, nuanced, and professional on 20 excellent cuts that include "Green Hills of Tyrol/When the Battle Is Over/Lochanside," "Raigmore/Mac and Irish/The Braes of Mar/The Hen and the Turkey," and of course, "Amazing Grace." ~ James Christopher Monger
