    Hello from Ottawa

    I came across this forum board by accident actually. I was looking to see if someone had an idea of where to get the sheet music for Amazing Grace and Highland Cathedral as I am thinking of adding bagpipes to the collection of instruments I play(7 in total as of now).

    I have a background in classical organ (grade 5) and piano having taken private lessons as a child until I was 18 and then it wasn't cool to do that.

    Now 37, I miss it very much and would like to get back into playing and now realize that it was cool to play back then.

    I'm looking forward to having a look around and see what I can find.

    Cheers,

    Jeremy

    Hello and welcome to the forums. Might try Sheetmusicplus.com , IMSLP for starters. Or your local music store should have it too....

    Welcome to MIMF, Jeremy.

    I know how you felt at age 18 ... I did too - not the sort of thing kids my age (back then) talked about without getting the deer-in-the-headlights stares from others. But, I kept pursuing my goals and never regretted it - now some 50 years later, I still have the same enthusiasm for playing as I did when I was younger.

    Glad you are taking it up again ...
