I saw Andre Rieu in Montreal two years ago and what an amazing performer. I've actually bought couple of his DVD's.

Thank you for posting this John. It's one of two songs I can never listen to without becoming misty eyed. Here is the second.

This was recorded in 1946, but in MHO is one of the best renditions - at least until this 14 year old boy performed it.

Nothing as beautiful as the "skirl of the pipes"!
Can anyone tell me the name of this well-known piece?

(also played at the beginning of the Andre Rieu posted item)

That bagpipe tune is "Scotland The Brave".

Great song.

Hi Denny,
Foxart is right, it's actually originally called "Alba An Aigh", and yes, thats Gaelic for Scotland The Brave. Here another version.
