Here's part of a growing list of tunes in the repertoire of the Legion pipe
band. Watch for revisions. All are in PDF format.
New tune(s) under study
Newer tunes not quite ready for prime time
- MSR - MSR consisting of the 79th's
Farewell to Gibraltar, Louden's Bonnie Woods and Braes, and the first two parts
of the High Road to Linton. Only the march has been rehearsed on the pipes, the strathspey and reel only having been tried on the practice chanter.
Standard parade sets
Tunes used in concert settings
Amazing Grace is also played in performances in a circle, but no score has been included here.
Tunes either played in the past, or studied on the practice chanter
- Atholl and Breadalbane Gathering - competition-style 2/4 march
- Abide with Me - well-known hymn,
played by the band some years ago as part of the Lethbridge Community Silver Band's "Always and Forever" concert
- Banjo Breakdown - four-part
6/8 jig, not yet in the band's playing repertoire. This was rehearsed when the band was still practicing at the U of Lethbridge, and never made it into the regular playing repertoire
- All the Blue Bonnets Are Over the Border - four-part 6/8 march. This was practiced by some band members when Alastair Gilchrist was still giving piping instruction to some band members
- Corkhill + My Love's But a Lassie Yet - a jig + hornpipe set. Wishful thinking.
- Pibroch of Donald Dhu - four-part 6/8 march. A tune Alastair Gilchrist had some members playing in the first year of the band's existence. No longer studied.
- Skye Boat Song + Mist-Covered Mountains - two slow airs in 6/8 time. These two tunes were studied in the first year of the band's existence and are no longer rehearsed
