Tour Scotland travel video of Pipers playing Strathspey, marches and reels bagpipes music at the Solo piping competition at the Highland Games on ancestry visit to the village of Birnam, Highland Perthshire, Scotland. Bagpipes have been around since pre-Roman times, and the typical Highland bagpipes we know best today have roots back to the early 1500s in Scotland. Bagpipes are aerophone instruments, with an air supply, a bag, a chanter or melody pipe and a drone that provides a constant note throughout playing.
