Glasgow Royal Concert Hall : Main Auditorium
Run in collaboration with Piping Live!
Celtic Connections is once again proud to showcase some of the world’s elite piping talent, together with a rising new force on the pipe-band scene.
Founded in 1906, the Pitlochry-based Vale of Atholl Pipe Band command international renown not only as superb technical exponents but for expanding the contemporary piping repertoire. Now under Pipe Major Adrian Cramb, with Andy Renwick as Pipe Sergeant, they continue to forge ahead with both newly-written material and innovative arrangements of tunes from Scotland, Ireland and beyond.
After vaulting through the juvenile rankings since forming in 2005, the Inveraray and District Pipe Band’s debut adult season saw them sweeping the board of top Grade 2 titles, an extraordinary feat that saw both band and drum corps named RSPBA Champion of Champions 2009. The concert will also feature an array of hand-picked soloists and very special guests.
