I dont know if it is something deep within me or just my love for a good melody, but there is nothing more lifting to my soul than a good pipe tune.
Be it a Ceòl Mòr or a Ceòl Beag, if it be played upon the pipes it will keep me sane.
Perhaps it is just the image of a lone piper, perched high upon the rocks, playing for the honor of his kin, his country, and his fellow man.
Perhaps I am a bit over romantic at times...
Who knows?
