About the Programme
BBC Northern Ireland's Ralph McLean presents highlights from the 57th Ulster Pipe Band Championships held recently in Bangor, County Down.
This year’s competition in Ward Park attracted bands from across Ireland, in addition to competitors from Australia and New Zealand. Almost fifty bands were put through their paces under the scrutiny of the judges in Grades One to Four.
The television coverage features top class performances and interviews with musicians and spectators. The first programme features music from Grades Three and Four while the second covers Grades One and Two.
Pipe Band expert Tommy Millar provides the commentary.
