Your band will have as much fun playing this piece as the composer had writing it! A great tune for your young band's funny bone! (How many pieces ask your drummers to make 'Quack-Quack' sounds?) Pure...

A medley of Highland Dance, 'The Lass of Gowrie,' 'Bythe and Merry Was She,' 'Scotland the Brave' and 'Auld Lang Syne.' Great fare for the young band.
