The signature sound of Scotland the Great Highland Bagpipe is often associated with traditional music.
Record producer Tommy Scott, one of Britain’s most consistent hit makers, (34 chart hits), never forgot his first love, that of the pipes which goes back to his childhood when his Uncle taught him to play the pipes.
Tommy always wanted to produce something for the pipes and when he wrote the anthem “Scotland Forever” he recorded it in an orchestral setting with the pipes.
The Pipes & Strings of Scotland portrays traditional Scottish music at its best with new compositions specially written for the magical blend of pipes and orchestra, together with popular songs to create beautifully the Spirit of Scotland in a collection that will thrill, charm and delight you over and over again.
