106 : Robert Barnes was visited at his home in Fife by Pipers ‘Persuasion where we chatted about Robert’s life in piping and famous pipers he knew and played with. His reed making. He has for many years taught young people while they made their first steps into playing with bands. Solo piping and pipe bands he played with and ultimately an adjudicator. All discussed in a relaxed fashion that’s Robert’s hallmark.
