    Although not a piper I recognised two of the tunes, but having a certain antipathy for things Irish, I don't know the other two - but don't restrict yourself to pipers.

    Pipe tune

    I think the last tune before wearing of the green is "the Sash".

    I think they start to play the Sash at the very end when they walk past the camera.

    Pretty rough recording though.

    It is The Sash and you might want to warn your friend that it is a tune with a considerable amount of baggage that will arouse strong feelings in some audiences.

    It is an Ulster Unionist anthem. The Irish Guards are one of very few bands who would play it alongside The Wearing of the Green - they try to honour all traditions in Ireland.

    I agree. It's sometimes called "The Sash My Father Wore".
