This arrangement may be useful for Pipe Band (or single
bagpiper) and marching band(s). In the traditional key,
bagpipe part does not need to be read, quartally
harmonized with drone notes throughout, in chaconne
style, leading to a trumpet countermelody, restated by
horns in a dramatic climax, followed by melody in the
bagpipes with drums. Also arranged for brass band, and
for orchestral brass, organ, and percussion.
