Bagpipes Music Of Royal British Legion Pipe Band Fraserburgh Scotland



Tour Scotland travel video compilation of the bagpipes and drums music of the Royal British Legion Pipe Band from Fraserburgh, Aberdeenshire. The name of the town means, literally, " burgh of Fraser ", after the Fraser family that bought the lands of Philorth in 1504 and thereafter brought about major improvement due to investment over the next century. Fraserburgh became a burgh of barony in 1546. The band wears Flower of Scotland tartan kilts. Flower of Scotland tartan was created as a tribute to Roy Williamson, writer of the words and music of the song The Flower of Scotland. Roy wore the Gunn tartan which was used as the framework for the new tartan. Cornflower blue and Zephyr green has been used to suggest the bluebell and the thistle.
