  1. Today's tune is 'Woo'd An Married An A', an auld 9/8 jig that pipers have been squeezing onto their pipes for at least a couple of centuries. Read all about it on the link below.

  2. The Reel of Stumpie, Buttered Peas, The Highland Wedding, Wap and Row, Pwt ar y Bys, Jack's be the Daddy On't… just some of the names connected to this auld tune. First appearing in print in the 1740s, versions of this tune became popular in Scotland, Ireland, Wales, England and even Italy

  3. Here's my setting of Maggie Lauder, certainly an auld tune as it seems to have first appeared, as far as I know, sometime in the 1600s.

  4. Time for another auld tune. Jack Lattin was once popular all across these islands. Composed in Ireland sometime in the early 1700s it quickly spread across the Irish Sea and appears in many Scots music collections of the 18th century.

  5. And now the last of my 40 settings from the manuscript. I enjoyed creating pipe friendly settings, I can't say I enjoyed recording them. I don't think recording tunes that I am unfamiliar with does the tunes or my piping justice.

  12. Right, after a week at carnival in Portugal and a week recovering it's time to get back to the auld tunes. This is another from the manuscript that was already in my repertoire although I've always played it as a standard reel without those semi-quaver runs.
