Customer Reviews

Totally inspiring !

The bagpipes have always been surrounded in tradition , history , and an almost mystical allure . If you happen to be amongst those that find their somewhat disonant and haunting sounds appealing , this dvd is sure to please . Anyone who has ever been a part of making music in any capacity, is likely to find this dvd to be totally compelling and informative . The unexpected appearance of Phil Collins , as someone who was beguiled enough by the pipes to want to learn to play them, is a pleasant surprise. And for history buffs , the footage of "war pipes" , and those that carried them bravely into battle , contains some extraordinary, and often touching first person stories . Lastly - if you happen to actually be a piper , as I am , you can't help but feel proud to be part of this very real connection to the past, and to pipers all over the world . This compilation shows the magic and beauty of the pipes remains as strong as ever ! An excellent film.
