Though not a household name to the average piper, Roderick Campbell’s contribution to the catalog of great pipe tunes is outstanding. For those who today treasure his tunes, his best and perhaps most beloved are the stately 2/4 marches “The Royal Scottish Pipers Society” and “The Edinburgh City Police Pipe Band,” the bold 6/8 marches “The Laird of Auchernach” and “The Banks of the Skiach” (SKEE-ach), he classic strathspeys “Tulloch Castle” and “Loch Loskin,” and the stunning reels “Malcolm Johnston”, “Alexander Wood”, and “Cecily Ross.”
