Funeral PiperWhat better final tribute could there be than to have a piper play for your loved one. The haunting and poignant sounds of the bagpipes will accompany those who have reached their journeys end. Funeral laments from a bagpiper may be played at the church and crematorium service. With over 30 years of playing at funerals our piper has vast experience and repertoire. He can pipe and lead the cortege to the place of service, to pipe as bearers and mourners enter the chapel, to pipe a lament at the committal, to lead mourners to the graveside at a burial, or to pipe as mourners gather their thoughts after the service.
