Select a tune to hear it
- Murphy O'Shea
- Named for the lead character of the movie; a Desert Storm veteran home from the war.
- Lament for Liam
- A "piobaireachd-ed up" version of Liam's Air; part of a dream sequence.
- Breton Tune
- We needed something with a Breton sound; and this is what I came up with, a sort of An Dro
- Liam's Air
- Amazing Grace and Scotland the Brave
- The Cobbler's Awl/Donald Time
- Two originals. The Cobblers Awl were a band that combined Irish folk song with ragtime and other musical styles; they helped me get through University and this is their hornpipe. Donald Lindsay is one of my great friends in piping, and I wrote this jig in honor of his occasional lapses in time management. All the parts start out with the best of intentions in 6/8, but they all wind up in 9/8, just one beat late.
- Highland Cathedral
- A great tune for weddings.
- Mairi's Wedding
- For piping the new couple down the aisle--a lively march!
- Skye Boat Song
- Stately but not too slow--perfect for bringing a bride up the aisle.
- Battle of the Pass of Crieff
- This is a bold piobaireachd in a major key, with lots of variations that make tempo control crucial.
- The Finger Lock
- A bottom-hand piobaireachd that ends with 196 edre movements in a row. A finger locker indeed!
