The Piping Times Annual
In April 2020, due to the unprecedented financial challenges caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, The National Piping Centre was forced to make the decision to stop printing the Piping Times and Piping Today magazines, which together recorded over 70 years of piping history.
In May 2021, it launched a crowdfunding campaign with two aims. Firstly, to produce a Piping Times Annual, which would cover the period from April 2020 - October 2021 and, secondly, to create a new website which housed a digital archive of the entire back collections of each magazine. The fundraising drive smashed its original target to raise ÂŁ33,000 to launch this new Piping Times Annual and digitise the archives of the Piping Times and Piping Today magazines plus the International Piper and Piper and Dancer publications.
Below is the ebook version of the new publication, which you can read online. Or if you wish to purhcase a hard copy, head to The Bagpipe Shop and puchase it here.
