Paul B. Cora, Bagpipes for All Occasions

Since 1986 I've performed at a wide range of venues, pleasing a diverse range of audiences. These performances have included weddings, rehearsal dinners, corporate gatherings, military dining-ins, graduations, birthday parties, anniversary parties, processions, parades, school assemblies, church services, memorials and funerals. In addition to many event performances, I am a regular solo competitor at highland games throughout the East Coast and have won prizes in both light music and piobaireachd (the classical music of the highland bagpipe).

In addition to the Great Highland Bagpipe, I also play small pipes which feature a mellow, softer tone suited to certain performance spaces. Several of my sound samples were made on the small pipes.

I will tailor the performance to suit the needs of the client. In addition to a wide repertoire of Scottish and Irish tunes, I have often performed special pieces of music not originally composed for the bagpipe such as: The Cornell University Fight Song – “High above Cayuga’s Waters,” “Kannon in D” by Johann Pachelbel, Wagner’s “Bridal Chorus”, “Theme From Star Wars,” and Jimmy Buffet’s “Margaritaville” to name a few.

I am available, often on short notice, throughout the Baltimore-Washington metro area, as well as Pennsylvania, Delaware and Virginia. Contact me to find out how I can make your next event one to remember.
