Believe
it or not, there are literally thousands of bagpipe tunes. To make it
easier for you, I’ve narrowed the selections down to the few options
on this page. If there is a special tune that you would like, it is usually
no problem for me to learn the tune, provided that I can research the
music, OR if there is a tape or CD that you may have available of the
tune.
The tunes listed
below link to midi files. In the interest of downloading time, they are
the best source and representation of what the tune will sound like. Clicking
on the name of the tune should launch a media player on your system.
If a media player does not launch on your system, you may need to download
QuickTime.
