1-2-3 Solo success for David Johnston our agent for Central Europe
David Johnston - Xanten
Wallace Bagpipes would like to congratulate our Germany agent David Johnston (Piperscorner Shop) for winning the Bagpipe Association Germany (BAG) open solo Piobaireachd competition among stiff opposition at the Highland Games held in Xanten, West Germany on Sunday 20th June. David played a marvellous rendition of the Little Spree on his Wallace Bagpipes with temperatures at a very low 7 degrees. The judge was Willie McCallum, who commented on his nice steady sounding instrument and perfect execution and flow of this very nice tune.
David went on to pick up a second place in the senior Hornpipe and Jig and a third for the senior MSR competition judged by R.T. Shepherd.
David reported that his instrument helped him achieve this success, by staying steady and constant throughout the performances.
