Tour Scotland Video Bagpipes Music King Edward Street Perth Perthshire

Tour Scotland video of Pipers playing traditional Scottish bagpipes music at the International Folk Dance Festival on visit to King Edward Street in Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. Though popular belief sets varying dates for the introduction of bagpipes to Scotland, concrete evidence is limited until approximately the 15th century. One Clan still owns a remnant of a set of bagpipes said to have been carried at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. However, written evidence for Scottish bagpipes is more definite in 1396, when records of the Battle of the North Inch of Perth reference " warpipes " being carried into battle.
