Scottish music

As you travel around Scotland, iconic sounds of the bagpipes will fill the
air, and it's likely you'll hear a parade of pipers before you see them. Youll
come across pipers on high streets entertaining passers-by, in parades, at
Highland games and during festivities throughout the year in Scotland, as
well as at gigs and music festivals.
Bagpipe music has strong connections to Gaelic culture and there are
roughly two main styles of music played on the bagpipes, Cel Mr and
Cel Beag. In Gaelic, this means 'big music' and 'little music'.
Many museums and castles tell interesting tales about the pipes amongst
their collections, but if youre really keen to find out more, your first port
of call should be the National Piping Centre in Glasgow. Exploring over 300
years of bagpipe history and featuring the oldest surviving chanter of the
Highland bagpipe anywhere in the world, the museum at the centre is an
excellent place to get acquainted with this iconic musicalINSTRUMENT.
STRUM ALONG TO SOME TRADITIONAL MUSIC
Of course, we love the pipes, but Scottish music comes in several genres
and it has played anIMPORTANT part in social and cultural life for
generations of Scots. Folk music evenings and jamming sessions still take
place in many pubs around Scotland, where you can often turn up with
your instrument of choice and just join in!
Youre also likely to hear traditional music played in the streets in many of
Scotlands cities, with buskers entertaining the crowds at all times of the
year.
