A showcase of Scotland’s finest young pipers and drummers.
The National Youth Pipe Band of Scotland (NYPBS) is a charitable project run by The National Piping Centre, created to inspire, develop, and connect young people through the power of pipe band music.

NYPBS brings together talented young musicians from across Scotland, to learn, perform, and create new music in a supportive environment.

This year the NYPBS has explored the idea of journeys. Under the theme Voyager, we look at movement, change, and discovery through music, people, and place.

Journeys are at the heart of what we do. Every rehearsal is a step forward, every performance a shared voyage, and every young musician brings their own personal path into the ensemble. We explore musical journeys, where melodies travel across instruments, traditions, and cultures, evolving as they are passed on and reimagined.

We also reflect on journeys beyond music; from physical travel and migration to historical movements that have shaped our world. Stories of exploration, endurance, and connection remind us that music has always moved with people, crossing borders and carrying identity, memory, and meaning.

From the courage of ocean crossings like the Maclean Brothers’ rowing journeys, to the vast imagination of space exploration, to the complex history of the pipes themselves, Voyager invites us to think about movement on every scale, personal, cultural, and global.

This year, we ask our members to consider their own journey: where they have come from, where they are going, and how music helps shape the path between the two.
