  • Gordon Jelly
    Drum Major Gordon Jelly by Allan Cha5o, 1994 Gordon Jelly in 1929, his first year with the Dalzell Highland Pipe Band, age fourteen. In 1915, Alexander Gordon Hamilton Jelly was born in the town of Motherwell, Lanarkshire, Scotland. In his early years he developed a keen interest in music, and at the age of twelve, while aFending the local 5th Company of The Boys Brigade, it was only natural that he was aFracted to their pipe band, and in parHcular, to the snare drummers. LiFle did the pipe band world know that this was the start of a foundaHon that was to become part of the history and the development of pipe band drumming. So it was in 1927 that Gordon decided he wanted to learn to play the snare drum. What beFer start could a keen young lad have? The BaFalion pipe band drummers were being tutored by the famous Jimmy Catherwood, who at the Hme was the Drum Corporal of the Dalzell Highland Pipe Band. This band, under Pipe Major William Jack and Leading Drummer Willie Craig, was making a name for itself in ScoSsh Open Grade CompeHHons. Dalzell Highland was formed when a group of piping enthusiasts met in 1910 on the "Old Calder Brig" in the steel town of Motherwell. Each member agreed to contribute five shillings a week - a considerable sum in those days - towards the band for the purchase of uniforms and instruments. The first pracHces were held outdoors on the banks of the River Calder. The band eventually gained the support of several generous "honorary members," one of whom was David Colville of the Dalzell Steel and Iron Works.

  • 'He Who Pays the Piper Calls the Tune:' the Role of Organisations in Constructing
    sites: new series · vol 9 no 2 · 2012 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11157/sites-vol9iss2id216 – article – ‘HE WHO PAYS THE PIPER CALLS THE Tune:’ The Role of OrganisaTions in ConsTRuCTing, Developing anD MainTaining sCottish highlanD Bagpipe CulTuRe in Otago, new ZealanD Daniel Milosavljevic & Henry Johnson aBsTRaCT The Scottish Highland bagpipe is a distinct and internationally-recognized symbol of Scottish cultural heritage and identity. This paper highlights the role of local and global organisations in establishing and maintaining the bagpipe’s enduring popularity in New Zealand overall, and in the Otago region more specifically. An historical study of such overarching organisations reveals that they hold a particularly important place in nurturing an underpinning social dimension of this aspect of Otago’s–and New Zealand’s–Scottish cultural her- itage. A mixed methods approach employing historical and ethnographic re- search has uncovered how these organisations helped shape Scottish Highland piping within Otago. This article also identifies how some key organisations connected with piping have shaped the performance of the instrument and its associated culture. Otago has had a strong connection with Scottish settle- ment and piping since the mid-19th century, and thus the historical records of piping in Otago make it a particularly relevant historical case study. As piping is arguably a musical culture that relies on contextual performances within the community for survival, the role of such organisations also needs to be understood.

The competition will coincide with the Virginia International Tattoo, which will take place April 27- 30, 2017, at Norfolk Scope Arena. The inaugural event in 2016 included eight bands—four in Grade 1 and four in Grade 2. Scotland’s Inverarary & District Pipe Band and Police Scotland Fife both participated and went on to place in the coveted “top six” at the World Pipe Band Championship in Glasgow. “We were blown away by the success of last year’s event” said J. Scott Jackson, the General Manager of the Virginia Arts Festival and Producer/Director of the Virginia International Tattoo. “We had world-class bands and great support from enthusiastic spectators. Most importantly, the bands had a positive experience, starting off their competitive season against strong competition and playing for outstanding judges.” The 2017 event will be open to Grade 2 and Grade 3 bands from around the world. All participating bands will compete twice: first in a March, Strathspey and Reel event and then in a Medley Selection event. Cash prizes will be awarded to the top three bands in each grade: Grade 2: $2,500 first place; $1,000 second place; $500 third place Grade 3: $2,000 first place; $800 second place; $400 third place The program will also include an Open Drum Fanfare Competition with a single $1,000 prize.

  • Music of the Great Highland Bagpipe: Chronological Changes In
    MUSIC OF THE GREAT HIGHLAND BAGPIPE: CHRONOLOGICAL CHANGES IN PIOBAIREACHD STRUCTURE AND PIPING REPERTOIRE —————— A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, Dominguez Hills —————— In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Humanities —————— by Michael E. Akard Spring 2020 THESIS: MUSIC OF THE GREAT HIGHLAND BAGPIPE: CHRONOLOGICAL CHANGES IN PIOBAIREACHD STRUCTURE AND PIPING REPERTOIRE AUTHOR: MICHAEL E. AKARD APPROVED: ___________________________________ Jacqueline Shannon, D.M.A. Thesis Committee Chair ____________________________________ Anita Chang, D.M.A. Committee Member ____________________________________ David Churchman, Ed.D. Committee Member Copyright by MICHAEL E. AKARD 2020 All Rights Reserved PREFACE Among the large family of musical instruments called “bagpipe,” the most prominent member is the Highland bagpipe, famous as the national instrument of Scotland. This study is about how the Highland bagpipe and its music have changed over time. Chapter 1 introduces the two main subdivisions of Highland bagpipe music: “light music,” or ceol beag1 and “great music,” or piobaireachd. The chapter describes the relationship of these two categories of music to the Highland bagpipe and presents an overview of some of the major changes in the performance of both. Chapter 2 describes a historically reconstructed piobaireachd from six hundred years ago and uses that performance to highlight differences between ancient practices and modern practices. Chapter 3 examines contrasting scholarly descriptions of piobaireachd and evaluates their strengths and weaknesses. A new definition for piobaireachd is proposed, and the chapter concludes with a case study demonstrating changes in piobaireachd length. Chapter 4 provides a historical overview of key influences that have shaped piobaireachd performance, composition, and transmission; the rise of ceol beag and parade marches as pipe music; and changes to the physical structure of the bagpipes themselves.
