Piping Live! Glasgow’s International Piping Festival will stage a special launch concert on May 24th at the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall to unveil its exciting programme for 6-12th August 2007.

The concert will feature performances from Scotland’s finest young pipers, drummers & dancers offering an exciting mix of traditional music with a contemporary twist that will appeal to new audiences as much as lovers of the pipes.
