This set is dedicated to the musical genius of Tom Clough and Billy Pigg and to their inspiration and enduring influence on pipers and their music.
Spirit of the Border was written by Tom Clough to commemorate the victory of the British Army at El Alamein in World War 2. Skye Crofters was a favourite of Billy Pigg and is in the style of a Scottish Jig but it isn't in Scottish collections. The last tune is called "Billy Pigg's Hornpipe" and is named after the great pipers son. I hav arranged the tune for Scottish smallpipes and play it like a reel.
