David Glen’s Manuscript: was
completed around 1907. Containing 191 tunes, it is one of the 19th
century’s biggest piobaireachd compilations. It is exceptionally
wide-ranging in scope and includes several interesting contemporary
compositions which indicate that the tradition was still in its creative phase.
Glen’s manuscript is a fascinating ‘piper’s workshop’. In it we can
see one of piping’s greatest editors actually at work, and study how he
approached the tunes and the principles he applied. In addition to his
editorial work, David Glen was perhaps the most prolific publisher of pipe
music yet to have appeared. His Collection of Highland Bagpipe Music (17
vols., Edinr., 1876-1900) was for a good many years the standard light music
edition, while his Collection of Ancient Piobaireachd (7 vols., Edinr.,
1880-1907) was described by John MacDonald of Inverness
in 1940 as ‘the most reliable we have today’. As well as being an editor
and publisher of pipe music, David Glen was also an important pipe maker whose
instruments are still prized, and a figure whose central significance to modern
piping is at length being recognised.
