Inverness Gold Medal winner: Glenn Brown

I wrote a piper spotlight article a few months back about Glenn Brown, originally from Canada and now living in Glasgow, and I’m happy to report that Glenn won the gold medal at the Northern Meeting in Inverness today. I’ve commented about how much I enjoy listening to him play, especially because of the awesome sound of his pipes, and I figured it was only a matter of time before he won one of the gold medals. He placed second at the Argyllshire Gathering the previous week, so it’s pretty obvious that his piobaireachd is in top form right now.

On a related note, I had written yesterday about how Willie McCallum will be trying to win the Clasp, the only major prize he has never won. That competition will happen tomorrow, and I’ll keep an eye on the results.
