Product Description

An album of world class pipers competing at the highest level. Donald MacLeod from Stornoway, Isle of Lewis, was an outstanding piper and an expert teacher but it was as a composer that he created his own memorial. His compositions cover the whole range of pipe music, showing a remarkable inventiveness and originality, and his published works are testament to his awareness that he should share his gifts with others. With the passing of Donald in 1984, The Lewis and Harris Piping Society desired to promote a lasting memorial to its most famous piping son and in due course the first 'P/M Donald MacLeod MBE Memorial Competition' was staged in Stornoway and is now regarded worldwide as one of piping's most prestigious annual events.
