Aberdeen`s First Bagpiping Trophy and Scottish Night

Aberdeen’s First Bagpiping Trophy
and Scottish Night
Featuring a beginner competition Piobaireached, the Aberdeen Trophy Piobaireached
as well as the Aberdeen Trophy MSR
26 and 27 September 2015
Scotland’s national instrument, the iconic bagpipes, is still
hugely popular. From buskers on the street to pipe bands
parading through Scottish towns and cities, you are certainly
likely to hear the unmistakable sound of the bagpipe in
Scotland before you see them!
Today the bagpipes are used in military and regional pipe
bands, to entertain at ceilidhs and in folk bands and solo
performances. They are also commonly used to accompany
Scottish Highland dancing.
