Harry Farrar was the “Indian wedding Bagpiper” at an impressive Sunday Morning Wedding. Also the wedding guests were very awake. And there were several hundred.
The groom and bride had family introductions and a series of traditions. At one point, dancing and singing was common. Also the groom was presented on a well trained horse!
The location for this large event and gathering is called BAPS. And is well know for the large size of the property. The structures are impressive too.
Bagpipe players have roots back to the Tigris-Euphrates river basin. India has taken the bagpipes from connections with Britain in the 1900’s. India’s bagpipe bands are numerous and versatile. In the USA a normalized kilted bagpipe player can step in as an Indian Wedding Bagpiper!
Bagpipers From India often Compete in North America
The kilt attire is common for most bagpipers but there are hundreds of bagpipe bands in this huge country that wear trousers. And often a sharp looking white formal outfit. Interestingly, there are as many variations of bagpipes in India as any other aged country.
