The Haggis
This is an old Scottish tune attributed to Captain Simon Fraser. My setting is based on the one on Capercaillie's Crosswinds. The Gaelic title I think means something like The Haggis With The Pin In It. The pin is the large skewer which Burns refers to in his poem about the haggis, and the idea of the tune title is that the bag and chanter of the pipes resemble a haggis skewered with one of these pins.

A setting appears on Celanova square but it's not as nice as the Capercaillie one IMO.

Does anybody know why so many Scottish people hate it?
Thanks for the Dmaj settings!
