Seumas' Citadel

An amazing resource of recordings from great bagpipers! From Seumas Coyne's website:

For centuries, the Coyne family has searched for, collected, categorized, and maintained culturally and musically significant artifacts of the greatest pipers in bagpiping history. Until now, access to these artifacts--painstakingly converted over the years to both audio and video files--was only granted to a select group of scholars and pipe majors.

Bagpipes and the United States Military

From its origin in Scottish clans and culture, the Great Highland Bagpipe has long been associated with the military.

Especially in more recent history, the Highland Regiments of the British Armed Forces, and some of the Lowland Regiments as well, have had bagpipers since their first formation.

The United States Armed Forces has historically had a very close relationship with the British – so the spread of the bagpipes was inevitable.
