about

I first heard Belfast fluter Gary Duffy playing this at a session. It is in fact two tunes welded together by tinsmith and legendary Donegal fiddler John Doherty. The first tune is ‘The Queen’s Welcome to Invercauld,’ a Scott Skinner composition; the second is a four-part pipe march by Angus McKay, ‘The Balmoral Highlanders.’ I’m only playing the first two parts of ‘The Balmoral Highlanders,’ as that’s the way I originally heard it.
