Cried like a baby at the funeral of 6 of my fallen comrades in Falklands war. This was played and made me feel proud to be a Scotsman. We were in our full Highland dress at the war cemetery in the Falklands. Sent a shiver down my spine

[@martinbootneck]

I missed the Falklands. I left the Royal Marines in 1980 after serving 10yrs between 42 and 45 Cmdo. I was gutted I missed it BUT, I shed a few tears when watching the fleet leave for the South Atlantic and I cried buckets when I heard that 4 of my oppo's lost their lives, even as I write this I am shedding tears.

My mom, died of Cancer today. She was 58. I have this and a few other songs I’ve been playing on repeat but this one sort of sets the tone for the mood today. I as a Police Officer hear the pipes and drums at funerals gets me sappy but this brings me a sense my momma is at peace, resting eternally. For that I am also at peace. Smiling while typing this with lots of tears knowing my mom would also very much approve of this. Thank you for this beautiful song.

This piece takes me from America, across the Atlantic and over the rolling verdant hills of the highlands. Soaring over the lochs filled with joy of my heritage

For Scotland and its people Their swords rang out from every glen Blood spilled freely by our bravest men who died for something worth more to them For Scotland and its people. (Chorus) We who now must follow them Shall we do the same again Fight and die for freedom still or bow on bended knee. Scotland's people are the greatest kind a friend to all with ties that bind A people yet both fierce and kind For Scotland and its people. Time for Scots to raise their eyes Let their talents gain their prize Raise their banner in the world's eyes For Scotland and its people. Word of my own making ---I hope you love this beautiful tune.

André Rieu hat mit seinem Orchester unzählige Menschen auf der ganzen Welt glücklich gemacht! Er erreicht die Herzen und auch bei mir spüre ich Gänsehaut und Emotionen, wie sonst bei keinem anderen Konzert.

Excellent rendition by a talented lady and musician. Rest in peace, Manoe Konigs

Highland Cathedral is a wonderful anthem for bagpipes and drums. Although it sounds very scottish, it was composed by two germans.

Very humbling and very moving such a powerful song The lady with the bagpipes who fought cancer and won that fight she came back to her passion for music to get that message accross

[@Conzdunchad]

And they wonder why us scots have so much passion, patriotism, will, strength, spirit and determination than all other nations. We may be small but we will be heard for we live in heaven itself.

I learned a few years ago that my mother's side emigrated from Scotland to North Carolina about 300 years ago, many moving on to north Texas by the early 20th Century. Proud of my Scot heritage.

My granddaughter is just 13 years old and I wanted her to listen to this song. Taylor, my granddaughter loved it. I was so happy! Now that’s our song. I told her about Andre Rieu and how I seen him in concert in 2018. Magnificent!

[@maryellenmartin1084]

I’m glad you liked my comment! I love Andre Rieu’s music. He’s absolutely amazing! The Johann Strauss Orchestra is extremely talented. Everyone of those musicians are fantastic. My granddaughter,, Taylor, is so special to me. She’s an awesome little lady! Willing to give a different genre of music a chance. That’s amazingly special in these days. 🎹🎵❤️🎶🎤🎸🥁🎺🎻🎻💕💕😘
