about

lament & jig: The Flight of the Eaglets/The Depth Charge

Michel: wooden flute choir, tin whistle

Robin: guitar

“The Flight of the Eaglets” is a Highland bagpipes lament composed by pipe major William Ross. Also called “Lady MacRobert’s Lament,” it commemorates the loss of that lady’s three sons in World War II. “The Depth Charge” is a three-part jig composed by Robin. The title is a souvenir of his wilder days; a depth charge is a drink consisting of a shot glass of whiskey dropped (glass and all) into a pint of beer.
