[the bagpipe] "is much used by the Irish: to its sound this unconquered fierce and warlike people march their armies and encourage each other to deeds of valor. With it they also accompany the dead to the grave making such sorrowful sounds as to invite, nay to compel the bystander to weep"
~Vincenzo Galilei 1581
“Amazing Grace”
A tune so synonymous with bagpipes that it’s probably the most requested song of all time. To create this audio I recorded multiple takes of Amazing Grace in the Historic St. Joseph Catholic Church in Springfield Missouri then layered them together digitally to create the feel of a pipe band playing the tune. This version begins with a solo then, a swelling of drones as the “other” pipes join, creating an intensely emotional rendition of John Newton’s classic hymn.
