pakehamack If the Album had but one tune, Remembering Martyn Bennett, it would be well worth it! I love this tune, almost as much as I loved the piper himself. We miss him.

Includes unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

I have added the printed music of these arrangements and compositions and a pdf of the Tutor for Cauld Wind Bagpipes that I wrote in the early 1980's. It embodies my approach to the bellows bagpipes of the Lowlands and Borders. I am an advocate of good technique and tone, the use of gracenotes and appropriateness of repertoire. The Tutor contains an excellent selection of tunes from the Lowlands and Borders of Scotland.

about

I started putting this selection of tunes together in autumn 2016. I have concentrated on using the Scottish Smallpipes in two pitches A and G. There are eleven compositions by me, most just played straight on pipes, two I have arranged for two sets of pipes and whistle. There are three sets by known composers that I have arranged for pipes and whistles and tried to keep to the integrity of the originals. I hope to produce another selection for Border bagpipes over the coming months. I have compiled these tunes and settings into pdf files that can be downloaded from here.
