  • Description

    This album is part of the highly acclaimed Scottish Tradition Series from the archives of the Schooll of Scottish Studies.

    Born in Strathglass in1903, song of an estate worker, it was while his father was working on an estate in Glengarry that George, not yet in his teens,
    began serious study of the repertory and tradition of the Highland bagpipe. He competed on occasions but spent a lot of his time studying and playing Pibroch, which is knoen in Gaelic as Ceol Mor (the 'great music').

    This album provides invaluable evidence of an earlier truly Gaeliic style of piping.
