Bagpipes in the beginning of this video?
 

Hello new member here of course. I'm just hoping to find out what the song being played by in the beginning of this video is. If it's even a song anyway, not entirely sure, but I just know I've heard that tune/melody before and it's been bugging me wanting to find what it is...



Thank you!

I don't hear any bagpipes.

I'm not sure why you don't, the video begins with a bagpipe tune before the national anthem is sang by the crowd.

That's a Parader's Flute. They're really loud to be heard over other instruments in a parade and sound a bit weird.

Oh I thought it was a bagpipe. I found it finally anyway lol it was of America The Beautiful so thread can be closed/deleted.

Just spreading the word on Parader's Flutes. Great instruments.

Because of the bagpipes or 'cause you found the song?

Cuz I found the song, just figured the thread had no purpose anymore

It now exists to educate people on Parader's Flutes.

I don't see a like button so I'll just say

#like

In place of one :laughing:

Don't worry about deleting it. So what aspect of the song do you like more: cause of the Pipes and Drums or cause it's a patriotic song? Do you own the Olympics Greatest Hits?

A few days ago I was listening to National Anthem solo & crowd performances specifically, then I came across this video, and that beginning tune just really really stuck in my head and sounded so beautiful for some reason lol

A bagpipe by itself can be kinda harsh, but get an ensemble of bagpipes and they mellow out.

Yeah I had to turn the bass up and treble down a tiny bit in my music player equalizer but I still love it :D
