we make it easy to discover, learn, teach and research the classical music of the highland bagpipe.
The Pibroch Network gathers together and makes accessible pibroch’s earliest primary sources with the means to explore them effectively, meaningfully, and collaboratively.Â
By curating this suite of digital resources and making the materials ever more discoverable, we aim to drive innovation in research, education, performance, outreach and access to pibroch: the single malt of Scottish music. Â
