Bagpipes and Drums

Last week a friend invited me to a concert of her favorite band. She knows them all personally and told me so much about them (no secrets!), that it was a totally different experience than 5 years ago, when I had seen Corvus Corax for the last time. Bagpipes are not my favorite instruments, but these guys build their own instruments and make their own "costumes" and show so much power on stage, that I really enjoyed myself! 

As you can see on the photos they didn't just have bagpipes and drums, but other flutes and many exotic instruments. Most of them are copies of medieval instruments and their songs all come from past times from all over the world.

They have already played huge concerts in China, Mexico and Russia. So I felt a kind of awe to be so near to such famous musicians.

Luckily we could stand in the first row and I could take some nice photos. For the videos I had to go to the back of the hall, as the noise at the front was too much for my cameras microphone.
