The annual Metro Cup competition returned this year after a 3-year pause and included the RSPBA’s world solo drumming qualifier. We’ll have a listen to some of the successful performances at those events. We’ll also hear from Cris Rodriguez, the organizer of the region’s latest gathering of pipers, and his New York City bagpipe club. 00:45 Episode Overview01:11 EUSPBA Updates with Jim Engle09:07 NYC Bagpipe Club27:40 The Metro Cup, Cameron MacDougall Medley37:06 Adult International Solo Drumming Championship, Derek Cooper, Scott Fletcher45:00 The Metro Cup, Derek Midgley Piobaireachd59:31 Closing, 1972 CNE Grade 1 Pipe Bands, Worcester Kiltie Pipe Band, Kenmure Pipe BandSupport the showThe Voice Merchandise!
