Funerals
Funerals are, of course, a very sad and emotional time, however the inclusion of a bagpipe player adds extra dignity and respect and provides an unforgettable memory of the occasion.
I liaise with the funeral director as far as possible, to minimise the stressfulness of making the arrangements. Tune preferences for the various parts of the service are very subjective, but the most popular are Flower of Scotland, Amazing Grace, Highland Cathedral and 'Going Home' - Largo from Dvorak's New World Symphony. I can wear a black tie as an extra mark of respect (as shown in the photograph here) or wear my standard green tie to blend in with the tartan as shown on the header page should you have a preference. |
