Perth is soon set to see an event that brings the history of Scottish bagpipes together with contemporary musicians leading the world stage.
Involving local musical greats like piper Fin Moore and fiddler Pete Clark, plus the Vale of Atholl Pipe Band, the Lowland and Border Pipers’ Society will be holding its annual conference (which it calls the ‘collogue’ from an antiquated word meaning ‘to confer’) in the Royal George Hotel in George Street on Saturday, October 8.
The conference is held through the day and a concert takes place in the evening. Both events are open to the public. The conference always features a handful of interesting presentations and this year will be no exception.
