Chris Armstrong

His love of piping started from the early age of six and has developed through the years with the help of his parents and his tutors.

Chris's initial learning and advancement was achieved through the close friendship developed between himself and his tutor P/M John Matheson B.E.M. who not only provided the expertise but also the encouragement he needed to achieve the awards and medals he has gathered along the way.

From the age of nine Chris started to compose his own bagpipe music, and many of these compositions are on his first recording 'Notes in ma Heid' .

Since release of "Notes in ma Heid", Chris has toured in Europe with the group "Canterach". "Quantum Leap" contains a range of compositions including "Inspiration" composed at aged 9 to "Quantum Leap" aged 19.

This CD will allow a broader listening choice incorporating traditional and modern piping themes.
