Stuart Liddell - Lunchtime Recital 2010: 4 of 8

Last Tango in Harris* (written by Roddy S. MacDonald) Set, including The Atholl Highlanders and the Cameronian Rant. This is followed by some well-known 4/4 marches and hornpipes.
* If you have heard Roddy MacDonald playing this tune on his CD, Good Drying, you will have noticed how he somehow manages to put strikes into the fourth measure too - absolute magic!!

This is awesome

[@alnitak208]

Awesome piping!

[@Stinkbatz]

Terrific!

[@BBCPipeBand]

The tune is the dust gatherer

[@l2e9aL]

aha! I have the sheet music for that but hadn't gotten round to looking at it, cheers! Great channel you got here by the way :)

[@gerritscherer4999]

For which tune do you have the sheet music mate?

[@Kaislee]

The tune is The Dust Gatherer, composed by Michael Murphy, I believe it is published in Terry Tully's 2nd book.

[@gerritscherer4999]

The last tune you are speaking of?

[@piperbob2]

Thanks ! Good luck with your piping !

[@MexicanBagpiper96]

3:56 His rendition of Cameronian Rant is pretty sick.

[@user-cx1wf3bo4u]

Sorry to be pedantic, but that was actually arranged by Bruce Gandy.

[@MexicanBagpiper96]

@@user-cx1wf3bo4u It was, but the embellishments he added were his.

[@BobbyJohnstonNetEngineer]

Such an epic piper, hope to chat with him some at PHSD this year! Can anyone tell me what tune he plays at the 7:36 mark, right before The Pumpkin's Fancy?

[@blakehollingshead813]

Bobby Johnston the tune is called Moonshine

[@piperbob2]

@PiperPride33 Sorry, I don't know the name of the tune, but I think it's one much played by Terry Tully and the St. Lawrence O'Toole Pipe Band. I'm pretty sure Terry played it when he gave a recital in London earlier this year. (And it'll probably be on their new DVD, when it comes out next year!)

[@jackb248]

Apologies, it's in his first book, my mistake! Sorry!

[@derekwilson7485]

What is the French ish sounding tune that stuart plays after scotland the brave and where could I find it Cheers

[@piperbob2]

Starting at 6:56, it's called "The Dust Gatherer", composed by Terry Tully and in his Book 2.

[@danmaciver]

does anyone know the name of the tune around 1.05?

[@TheHoohoodragon]

+Dougal Sure; it's called "Inspector Donald Campbell of Ness".

[@danmaciver]

Nice one thanks, now to dig out the chanter and learn it

[@danielmcclintock7852]

BAM where we at

[@jackb248]

It's in Terry Tully's 4th Book. The new one with the black cover. Not sure where to get it though.

[@BAGPIPER3060]

Does anyone know where I can find the sheet music to The Dust Gatherer? Thanks!

[@elgaitero1]

I realize it's probably a souped up setting...but was the tune named following Scotland the Brave??

[@diegobac5067]

the dust gatherer

[@piperbob2]

@ciaransinclair Thanks for that ! By the way, I enjoyed your solo in "Lullaby" in the "Illumination" concert recently. Have you seen the video of it on my channel ? Well played !

[@j.ptomba2542]

Anyone know the name of the one at 7:44?

[@adamturner8732]

Whats thevsong at 7:00 my uncle plays it

[@piperbob2]

I've heard it played several times, but regret I don't know its name. I think its a tune made popular by Terry Tully and the St. Laurence O'Toole Pipe Band.

[@gtafan1722]

the dust gatherer

[@PiperPride33]

well perhaps not too obvious....what is the tune after Scotland the Brave and where can I find it?

[@rolupin]

Perhaps someone have the name of the tune beginning arond 3:00 ?

[@piperbob2]

rolupin From 3:00 to 3:56 the tune is called "The Atholl Highlanders", which is normally played as a 6/8 march, but this is Stuart's version of it, played as a jig !

[@rolupin]

piperbob2 Thank you !

[@alejandrolikewhoa]

SFU pipe band played it as a jig the same way in their 2008 medley.

[@piperbob2]

@@xorezx1 Have you also seen my 16 video clips "Stuart Liddell Recital - Ipswich Piping Society 2017" ?

[@derekwilson6573]

Does any1 know the tune that Stuart plays Scotland the brave

[@piperbob2]

Do you mean after "Scotland the Brave" ? If so, I believe it's called "The Dust Gatherer" composed by Terry Tully.

[@kieranmcalea1278]

does anyone have the music for the Atholl Highlanders Jig?

[@user-cx1wf3bo4u]

To my understanding it's a 6/8 march that can be played as a jig.

[@piperbob2]

Oh, that's "The Jig of Slurs" composed by G.S. McLennan (can be found on page 267 of the Scots Guards Book 1 !)

[@l2e9aL]

what's the tune that starts at 2:01 ? Love it!

[@scottypiper2708]

what is the jig after last tango in harris

[@piperbob2]

Sorry for late reply (only just noticed) - I believe it is "Inspector Donald Campbell of Ness"

[@micregil]

I hate that banner behind him, it's just not drawn right, I don't know why that bothers me so much.

[@piperbob2]

I know what you mean - the bass drone seems to lay behind the head, on the right shoulder, while the tenor drones lay on the left !

[@kurt1698]

What's the name of the tune he plays after Scotland the brave?

[@piperbob2]

Hi Kurt - It's called the 'Dust Gatherer' - St. Lawrence O'Toole PB play it and I gather it's in Terry Tully's Collection Book 2.

[@Stification]

piperbob2 Hi Bob, I just got the Terry Tullys collection 1 from the Piping Centre but the dust gatherer isn't in it. Do you have a copy??

[@piperbob2]

Stu Wakes Sorry, no, I don't have a copy. If you look further down this page, jackb248 corrected his earlier statement that the tune was in Book 4, to Book 1; and Tim Caisley believes it is in Terry Tully's Book 2. I haven't got any of the books, so I don't know - sorry !

[@Stification]

Stu Wakes Got it. They sent me the wrong book but have the right one now. Great fun tune but all the birling needs practice. I'll get it off one day. Keep the vids coming Bob. Good channel mate.

[@piperangus1477]

+Stu Wakes could you send me the music for dust gatherer please?

[@gamesn8695]

Whats the name of the first song he played and can someone send me the score

[@piperbob2]

The first tune is composed by Roddy MacDonald, called "Last Tango in Harris" and can be found in his book, "R.S. MacDonald - The Collection". If you get hold of Roddy's CD, "Good Drying" you'll hear him playing strikes in the fourth measure - just fantastic !

[@gamesn8695]

Damn i wish i could get the score

What's the tune after The dust gatherer

[@piperbob2]

I know the tune, but can't think of the name - sorry.
