Rod Caird is the Bealings Bagpiper.

He learned the pipes at Trinity College, Glenalmond near Perth in Scotland, aged 13 - over forty years ago! He now teaches them at Orwell Park School in Suffolk.

His pipes have featured on BBC Radio Suffolk and he has played at weddings as far afield as St. Petersburg, Florida, USA. Rod regularly performs at birthdays, Burns Nights, funerals, village fetes, sporting events, balls and has even piped at Norwich airport! He will play at any event, at all times of year and in all weathers.

Rod's repertoire includes a wide selection of traditional Scottish bagpipe music. It includes old favourites such as Highland Cathedral, Amazing Grace and Flower of Scotland as well as many others. Rod can help you work out a suitable selection for your occasion.

He can also turn his hand to performing a bagpipe adaptation of your favourite song. Recently these have included You Raise Me Up (Westlife), California (Phantom Planet) and D'Ya Think I'm Sexy? (Rod Stewart).

Rod is based in Suffolk in the United Kingdom and can travel anywhere in Suffolk or the surrounding area.
