A Great Jig Stomp for you pipers...

Hi to all-
There is a Piper in Haifa Israel named David Siegel who has an absolute gift for writing great pipe tunes. I've actually never heard him play, but his tunes are absolutely incredible. I recently came across one of his tunes that he wrote after visiting Louisiana and hearing cajun accordion. Its called "Dirty Rice and Haggis". This is a definite show off piece to play at the pubs or party to get 'em "stomping. You can PM if you want the music to this, or you can hear it on youtube. Here's the link-This is a computer generated midi file that sounds like small pipes, but you'll get the gist.

Thank you for posting this! This sounds like a great tune and one I'd certainly enjoy learning! Have a great day!

Great tune. May be a while before I can play that. The grace notes almost sound like Morse Code. Now there's a thought -- write a pipe piece with a hidden code message!!!!

That's a great tune. What else has he written?

Almost all his stuff is awesome. Just check his youtube channel. He has a fantastic March that I will be using for competition this coming year. Its called "Tim Gellaitry highland Bagpipes"-Really a great march-

What a fine tune! It will be a while before I can play that, too. Josh, do you know if he's on bobdunsire?

David is a tremendous composer. He's written a ton of stuff. He's also very gracious; I wrote him and asked for a tune which he promptly emailed to me.

I'm not even going to try playing the tune you posted.... My kung fu is not that strong...
