    What tune is this!!!!??

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGU2hzvKrds
    the tune starts at 4:44.
    i know it's a traditional march and i know i've heard it before but i cannot remember the name of it to save the life of me.
    the reason why i'm asking is because the wind symphony at my school is considering this piece for band contest and my directors want me to play pipes at this particular part!
    just a little background: I've been trying to get them to let me have this opportunity ever since i started playing back when i was a freshman and now's the time!!!!

    Can't help too much, however Giroux did leave a comment so you could possible ask the composer. Back to my original thought: any one who has Sibelius 3 or newer has part of this piece in the example scores section.

    Sounds like "Johnny Cope", although the ending seems different than the Scots Guards version (vol 1 p3).

    Could it be "Hey, Johnny Cope"? It would be cool if you could play your pipes with the school band.

    Oh yes, that's Johnny Cope followed by Killiecrankie.
