Hello, my name is James Douglas. I am a full-time proffessional bagpiper based in Dundee and I would be honoured to play for you, your family, your friends, and of course the loved one that has landed you on this page. While funerals are not an event that we wish to attend, it is an oppertunity for us to remember the memories we have, and only say goodbye to the chance of making new ones. I charge a flatrate of £150 to make sure that you can focus on the things that really matter - you.
James the Piper
What music can I play?
I can play many tunes and can learn absolutely any traditional bagpipe tune upon request. If you are looking for modern melodies, you are in the right place as I can play many non-traditional tunes. If you would like a specific tune played, just let me know and I will learn it for you. Here are some common bagpipe music that are very fitting for funerals:
-
Flowers of the Forest
-
Amazing Grace
-
The Dark Island
-
Skye Boat Song
-
Going Home
-
Mist Covered Mountains
-
Abide With me
-
Flower of Scotland
Am I based in Arbroath?
I'm conveniently located in central Dundee, which makes it easy for me to travel to Arbroath for you. Being only 30 minutes from Arbroath offers excellent access to surrounding areas, allowing me to share my bagpipe music with those who truly appreciate it.
