Here is a list of many of the tunes which I play. It includes a wide variety of tune types, and occasion types. I'm sure you will find something that will please you. If you would like to hear what a certain tune sounds like, give me a call - 703-998-2903 - and I'll play it for you on the practice chanter. I don't have the ability to put sound bites on this site. If you have a tune you would like me to play and it is not on this list, let me know. If it is playable on the bagpipe, I will make my best effort to play it for your occasion. I'm always happy to learn new music, but I do need lead time for certain special requests.
