highland dragon pipeband

Some friends of the Scottish Highlandpipes met in Oerlinghausen (near Paderborn) in the spring of 2002 to make music together. Anke, Pierrette, Thomas, Gerry, Maik and Rüdiger were asked to take part in a parade in the community. However, the “formation” was still missing the name! After a long discussion, Pierrette’s proposal was narrowly won. The “Highland Dragon Pipe Band” was born. As a band symbol, the Celtic dragon shines in deep red from the bass drum."
