No matter what the occasion, Marsha's repertoire includes a wide variety of tunes to enhance your special occasion. From the familiar tunes of Light Music to the great masterpieces of Piobaireachd, the classical form of piping, Marsha is ready to play for your enjoyment.

For your performance, you may choose between the music of the Great Highland Bagpipe or the lovely sounds of John Walsh Shuttle Pipes.  The 'big' pipes bring you the majestic sounds so well known as 'bagpipe' sound. Their bold, full tone is perfect for outdoor use, and indoors for prominent aspects of events, such as wedding processions.   The Shuttle Pipes are smaller and softer, perfect for indoor use when quieter music is appropriate, as in seating of guests during a wedding or funeral service.

Bagpipes are perfect for concerts in Senior Centers and Retirement Homes. After the concert, Marsha is happy to visit those who were unable to leave their rooms, and bring along her Shuttle Pipes for a tune or two.

Marsha enjoys educational offerings. She enjoys sharing the world of piping with everyone from children through senior citizens. Inside and out,bagpipes are fascinating. Enjoy a 'Bagpipe Petting Zoo', and find out just what's inside one of those bags.

for your occasion.
