"Thank you for your fabulous piping and so much more!" Simon Manley, UK Ambassador and Permanent Representative to the WTO and UN in Geneva
Have your piper play for your guests as they arrive or to announce the start of your formal proceedings, encouraging your guests to take their places in your function room or to entertain ahead of the main event. At a corporate event, your piper can lead in your keynote speaker – a sure-fire and light-hearted attention-grabber before your participants get down to the more serious business of the day.
Opening new premises, promoting your brand or launching a new product? Having a piper mark the occasion adds that je ne sais quoi that will ensure that your clients remember your event and helps you both to draw in and stand out from the crowd!
Pipers playing for a friend or family member’s special birthday is a great surprise and makes the event all the more memorable. Of course, Happy Birthday can be played out on the pipes. And, isn’t every birthday special?
Scottish themed celebrations, such as a Burns’ Supper or a St. Andrews Day dinner, will never feel quite complete without a piper or pipers present to play a selection of traditional airs.
And what could be more authentic than bagpiper playing for your Hogmanay party? A piper can play earlier in the evening to welcome guests, and return to play out the old year and bring in the new on the stroke of midnight. Auld Lang Syne, anyone? Of course, having more than one piper and perhaps even a side-drummer present will take the whole experience to another level.
