Tour Scotland Travel Video Best Bagpipes Kilts And Tribal Drums Music City Centre Perth Perthshire



Tour Scotland travel compilation video of the best bagpipes, kilts and Tribal drums music of Clanadonia in the city centre on visit to Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. Clanadonia are the greatest tribal drum and pipe band to come out of Glasgow. The kilt first appeared as the great kilt, the breacan or belted plaid, during the 16th century in the Scottish Highlands and is Gaelic in origin. The filleadh mòr or great kilt was a full length garment whose upper half could be worn as a cloak draped over the shoulder, or brought up over the head. A version of the filleadh beag, philibeg, or small kilt, was also known as the walking kilt. The small kilt or modern kilt emerged in the 18th century, and is essentially the bottom half of the great kilt. Since the 19th century, it has become associated with the wider culture of Scotland, and more broadly with Gaelic or Celtic heritage. It is most often made of woollen cloth in a tartan pattern.
