Cruinneachadh nan Comhlan / Meeting of the Bands

8 medlemmar

St Laurence O'Toole Pipe Band, one of the world's leading grade one bands comes to the Western Isles of Scotland to meet and play with the local bands of the islands of Lewis, Uist and Skye.

No roll call of the great pipebands of all times would miss out St Laurence O'Toole of Dublin. Founded in 1910 they are frequent winners at all the major competitions such as European, British, Scottish and Cowal Championships. They were crowned world championships in 2010 in their centenary year.

In a break from their usual competition circuit the Irish superstars came to the Western Isles on a sunny but blustery weekend at the end of March 2012 for two days of performances, concluding in a meeting with the local bands at the stunning location of Macleod's Stone in South Harris. This historic location, the site of the megalithic standing stone is high above the white sands of Horgabost beach.

Both English and Gaelic are spoken, displaying English subtitles when needed.
