Bagpipe Revolution news!

My new CD, Bagpipe Revolution, received 26% of the votes in the PipesDrum Reader's Choice Poll for Album of the Year. That was enough to win the runner up spot. Thanks to all who voted.

Wilson Brown reviewed the CD for PipesDrums. He gave it 3.5 stars. You can read the whole review (subscription required) here: http://tinyurl.com/br-review

A few highlights:

"It is obvious from this recording that Jori is not only a very talented piper but is also a very creative musician."

"The Highland pipes are full and resonant and the mix of instruments work very well in creating an atmospheric sound."

"Evolution, a jig-style piece of music composed by Chisholm...is a cleverly constructed piece of music."

"Bagpipe Revolution is an enjoyable CD from a musician who has been willing to put together an album of contrasting styles, who has not been content to follow the usual format."

If you are a PipesDrums subscriber make sure to post your comments!

Cheers!

Jori
