About
Vicki is a second generation piper Vicki - performing regularly on the Scottish Smallpipes, Borderpipes and Swedish säckpipa. The Scottish Smallpipes have a much mellower sweeter sound than their big brother the Great Highland Bagpipe. The border pipes have a similar timbre to the Highland Pipes but are much quieter. Vicki holds the Brons Award from the Swedish Zorn Jury for the traditional playing of the Swedish Säckpipa.
Vicki is available for many different kinds of events including:
Burns Night
The border pipes are likely to have been used at around the time of Burns and are a fine allternative to the HIghland Pieps for any Burns Suppers (21st January). Vicki is able to process the haggis and then perform Robbie Burns' address to the haggis. (See media clip)
Weddings /Funerals
If you're looking for a piper but with a more subtle sound the border pipes are perfect for both weddings and funerals. Vicki can take requests given enough notice.
