Noting the Tradition
The National Piping Centre has received support from the Heritage Lottery Fund to undertake an oral history project called âNoting The Traditionâ. This will involve undertaking oral history interviews with people who have been involved in piping at all levels and all over Scotland in the past 50 years.
The National Piping Centre Principal, Roddy MacLeod, commented, âThis is an exciting project which will add to the historical and heritage resources available to researchers and members of the public interested in the history of piping. It also offers the opportunity to become involved in the creation of an important and lasting resource telling the story of Scotlandâs iconic instrument, the Great Highland Bagpipe. We hope that you will be inspired to join us in this vital heritage work.â
The project was managed by James Beaton at the National Piping Centre, and he can be contacted by telephone on 0141 353 0220, or by email on This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
