No other instrument captures and sets the mood of the moment. No other instrument so touches the heart, perhaps the very soul. The skirl of the bagpipes has played men into battle for centuries. The melodies that inspired men were heard from the highlands, glens, and moors of Scotland and Ireland.
The bagpipe is one instrument that has been used in state funerals as well as military funerals for centuries. They have also had a commanding presence in other state or military affairs as well. However, over the past decade, bagpipers are emerging as a common feature in regular and private funerals.
The kind of music played by funeral bagpipers help give the departed a send-off full of emotions. After all, your loved ones deserve the best parting possible.
The Bagpipes Arrive in America
World War I took American troops in mass (over one million) for the first time in Europe. These troops witnessed for the first time, British pipers leading the men into battle.
World War II again saw the pipers leading the troops off of the landing crafts and onto the beaches of Normandy on D-day. President Kennedy invited the pipes and drums of the Regimental Black Watch to perform on the White House lawn for him and his family. Just days later First Lady Jackie Kennedy requested the band to take part in President Kennedy’s funeral procession.
