Episode 29 - Flooers o the Forest

Enjoy Your Piping! With Gary West

Gary brings you more high quality music of the bagpipe kind, with tunes from Rura, The Finlay MacDonald Band, Iain MacFadyen, Fred Morrison and Canadian band, Iron Brew. There's a gorgeous version of the pibroch, Desperate Battle of the Birds on pipes and piano, courtesy of Roddy MacLeod and Craig Muirhead, a taster of a brand new piece for pipes and orchestra from Lorne MacDougall, and with Armistice Day just around the corner, a moving song version of the lament, Flooers o the Forest, from one half of the Corries, Ronnie Brown.
