Tour Scotland 4K travel video of a Scotsman playing Scottish music on the Great Highland Bagpipes, on New Year's Eve, Friday, 31 December, 2021, on visit to Perth, Perthshire. In Scotland, New Year's is called Hogmanay. Very mild weather tonight in Scotland. The Great Highland Bagpipe, the Piob Mhor, is an instrument with opposing harsh shrills and graceful tones, meant to be played outdoors, in the open countryside and it is well suited in inspiring Scotsmen, and women, on the field of battle and in the aftermath, mourning the fallen, or celebrating victory. Through history, pipers are remembered for being mortally or seriously wounded the latter whilst continuing to play in the face of adversity. Have a happy New Year
