I need a Scottish Bagpiper for my wedding in Spain. Does anyone know anyone? or any groups online?

Question

I am looking for a Scottish piper to play at my wedding in Alicante (Elche) in October. Scottish bagpipes have a very strong sound, unlike the 'Gaita' pipes which are the Spanish traditional sort and are more reedy.

Does anyone know of any news groups or ex pat places i could go to? I have done lots of googling and only found spanish gaita players, or scottish pipe players in the UK.

While a Scottish pipe player is fine, it would be a lot easier to fine someone who already lived in Spain.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Torquil, the question you ask is almost impossible to answer here. You should google this, then start looking in spanish yellow pages. There are very few scottish bagpipers anywhere, and to find one in spain if you don't live there may be a lost cause.

Answer 2

Hi, Its a long shot, but if you contact the tamisa hotel costa del sol, just google it.  They have a piper there, he may know of someone else of even a group that you ask for....

Good Luck
