Lidgren Bagpiper

It was very cold in Calgary on Thursday, and my walk from the parking in the East Village to the Central Library in my kilt was definitely brisk. But it was for a wonderful occasion, another citizenship ceremony where over 100 people officially became Canadian citizens.

These ceremonies are among my favourite engagements. I’m grateful that Calgary Public Library continues to involve me, and I’m glad the sound of the bagpipes helps make the day memorable for our newest fellow Canadians.

Welcome, and congratulations to all! 🇨🇦🎉

Yesterday, I had the honour of playing the bagpipes at the Centennial Calgary Legion on Horton Road for a celebration of life.

That space brought back many memories for me, playing there on Remembrance Day over the years and practicing there with my pipe band. It brought back some emotion to return in a moment of remembrance.

It’s always a privilege to provide music in honour of a life remembered. My sincere condolences to the family and friends.

Merry Christmas Eve! 🎅✨
