Donald MacPherson: The Legend Lives On

Donald MacPherson: The Legend Lives On

This compilation of compositions by the man regarded the world over as the “greatest piper of the 20 century” is now available in a wonderful book.

Donald MacPherson was something of a phenomenon in piping. He was not just a masterful performer, a wonderful teacher and a great ambassador for bagpiping across the world but he was a talented composer too. Some of Donald’s compositions have already been published and are well known, such as ‘The Curlew’, ‘Donnie MacGregor', ‘Echoes of Oban’ and 'Mrs. Donald MacPherson'.

Recently his handwritten manuscript book with early tunes was found. This included nine tunes that have remained untitled and unpublished until now. For the first time, all of Donald’s compositions are now compiled in one book along with photographs and stories behind the titles.
