Random Piping Video
One of my favorite pipers is Angus MacColl; he’s definitely among the elite competition players on the scene today. I heard him play at the Winter Storm concert last year, and it was almost magical. I kept thinking, “Man, this is what bagpipes are really supposed to sound like.”
I came across this video of Angus playing in an instructor’s recital at a piping school a few years back. It’s hard to tell the quality of pipe sound on a recording, but this one has pretty good sound and I can only imagine how good it sounded live in person. I love the very slight crow on the high A, and the harmonics it makes with the drones is great.
