He's singing 'Fhir a' Chinn Duibh', which is the Gaelic lament which formed the base for 'Cumha na Cloinne'. There are veins of 'Fhir a' Chinn Duibh' throughout the pìobaireachd, especially in the ùrlar.
Stumbled upon this peice looking for a redition of Lament for Iain Ruadh...beautifully played by Allan. Heart and Soul Ceol Mor...Big Music played on the small pipes.
Lovely what's he playing? I didnt know the Scottish had pipes that you dont blow into - you can really tell I'm an expert there, huh!?
do u have the intro recorded. im sure it is fascinating..
This is the way Pìobaireachd is supposed to be played. Beautiful. Passionate. And not regimented.
Allan deserves great credit for all he has done to promote and preserve Ceol Mor
Alan has won all the major Piobairechd contests...but he is renowned for playing (when not competing) in his own interpritations of piobaireachd..hes a top piper.. ;-)
Boy with the black hair I gave you love Boy with the black hair I gave affection. I gave you love, I gave you affection. I gave you a love that I did not give to the rest Boy with the black hair, I gave you affection."

Fhir a' chinn duibh thug mi gaol dhut Fhir a' chinn duibh thug mi gràdh dhut Thug mi gaol is thug mi gràdh dhut Thug mi gaol nach dug mi chàch dhut Fhir a' chinn duibh thug mi gràdh dhut
In a long introduction, Allan introduced this as the Lament for the Children; I'm not well-versed in pibroch, so I take his word for it
This is the Mackintosh Lament. Not Lament for the Childeren.
