Very interesting to see so many musical genres, some very different from others!
I don't have a specific musical genre since I can hear several according to the occasion.
Today I am going to share with you a piece of music from the bagpipe band "Cardenales del Exito" which began in 1963, it is worth noting that by that time I was not born (I am younger hahaha).
To hear a bagpipe is to travel to the month of December, to remember the family celebrations and the food!
The bagpipes not only make us dance, sing, but also remember.

In reading your text I was interested to see how the Scottish bagpipes would blend with Spanish music...And on listening to the music I then realised there's no bagpipes in the clip at all. Maybe your translator is having a bad day?
Anyway, I went looking on YouTube and found this...Which is bagpipes, and is from Barcelona proving that bagpipes and Spanish people really do mix!
Thanks for playing along this week, dropping this sing which was quite upbeat and energetic so I can understand why you like it.

I thought I'd share with you this video from Carlos Nuñez, a "gaitero" (bagpiper) considered one of the best in the world.

I've always liked bagpipes, played well of course...I've seen a few played really badly and it was rather unpleasant. Generally though I've enjoyed listening to the bagpipes. They're played a lot at military functions and occassions. Kind of nice. Thanks for sharing this one.
Wow! That's an amazing run on the bagpipes, I love it!
Here in Venezuela the bagpipe is a popular musical genre that is interpreted in mixed groups, its themes range from love songs to jocular themes.
Here I leave another piece of music for you to enjoy a little bit of our Venezuelan bagpipes.
Doing my Saturday evening scroll, just wanted to say thanks for the bagpipe tune, I do love the sound of it, and Amazing Grace is a great tune for the bagpipes.
I was curious about what that user meant by bagpipes although I think it might have been a translator error? Anyway, I went searching and found the Barcelona bagpipe thing...Kind of cool right?
Very, there is a lot of music, and the one instrument I usually do not have a problem recognizing is the Bagpipe. Did you think you would get music from the late 30's to present day? Maybe even from the 20's I did see Duke Ellington mentioned.
I think music transcends time and so depending on the piece, and listener, can have just as much relevance many years later. Someone mentioned La vie en rose by Edith Piaf from 1945 but I think that's the oldest track people have mentioned here this week. What a good song that is too. One of my favourites and there's so many spectacular covers of it around, certainly one for every taste.
I got through 35 seconds of that. If I'd have stayed any longer I'd be a tear leaking wreck. Too many times that I've heard the pipes play that song at a funeral. For the record, I can't listen to Jesus Loves Me (Claire De Lune) either.
But I do have an Amazing Grace rendition from a group I've seen live twice at all day blues fests. Blind Boys from Alabama.
It's a powerful song Tom and has the same effect on many around the world. I like this version you've shared. ✅
ENGAGEtokens.That was certainly get up and move sounds to me, I do not speak any Spanish, but it was still a nice tune.
That's right, when they sound it is inevitable not to dance. Too bad you don't speak Spanish so you could fully enjoy the piece.
Its a nice song, even though I didn't understand the language but I loved the instrumental of the song. I enjoyed it
It is good that in spite of not understanding the language I can enjoy the music.!
Its actually nice
It's amazing how a single song can spark great memories. The best ones are those memories of the good times spent with family. Loved the vibe from this song. 😁
Yes, it is good to be able to have beautiful memories just by listening to a song. I'm glad you liked it 😉
