The bagpipes often elicit a ‘Marmite’ response. Some people love them some people hate them – but whichever camp you fall into, you can’t help but admit that the bagpipes have a charm all of their own. Piping Live! celebrates the world of Scottish piping and includes concerts, workshops and street performances.
