Strathallan School Pipe Band join Red Hot Chilli Pipers on stage

Members of Strathallan School Pipe Band were invited on stage this month by Scottish piping legends the Red Hot Chilli Pipers.

Performing live at Perth Concert Hall in front of a packed audience, Strathallan pipers and drummers took to the stage to play ‘Highland Cathedral’ with the band.


Strathallan Pipe Major, Conor C, who led the band on stage said, “Playing with the Chillis was absolutely incredible, going up on stage no matter where is always enjoyable, but with the Chillis it was something more.

“I think I speak for the whole band when I say that it was one of the best experiences you could ask for, and it really shows just what you can do with piping and the joy it can bring.”

Piping Instructor Josh Fraser, who joined the band on stage said, “It was an unforgettable evening for the Pipe Band. It was some of our pipers' first-ever performance and I think it will stick with them for a while. With Strathallan pipers from Hong Kong, Iceland, and Spain joining in, it was a unique experience.”

The Perthshire concert wouldn't be the only time Strathallan Pipers played with the Chillis, as Piping Instructor Kyle Howie and former pupil Harry Richards joined them pitchside to play to a packed Murrayfield for the Calcutta Cup.
