Bagpiping for All Occasions
Overview
Hello, I'm Hugh! I've piped at numerous weddings, birthday parties, funerals, corporate meetings and other events for over 25 years. Rest assured I arrive at each event prepared to play at the highest level on a well-tuned instrument. I wear the Maple Leaf tartan, Canada's national tartan.
Rates depend on the distance I have to travel and my time required at each event. Meetings and rehearsals prior to the actual event will increase my quoted amount or rate after booking. I have a friend that plays the snare drum if you'd like a piper/drummer combo for your event!

Hugh made our burial service very special. We could not have asked for more.
Highly recommended!

Hugh arrived early, got tuned up, and did a marvellous job! Very respectful. My friend would have loved it and Hugh’s performance capped off a moving ceremony at his grave site.
