ABOUT US
We are always looking for new players and members to join the band and club. The FC St. Pauli Pipe Band was formed in 2015 and is currently concentrating on building up new players for the pipe band. Our aim is to play modern compositions as well as traditional tunes. We teach beginners as well as experianced players according to the rules of the Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association (www.RSPBA.org).
It’s our ambition to work with all members in a respectful, participating and open-communicating club community. We think that to enjoy the learning lessons and to feel welcome in the club environment is the best foundation to continually getting better as a band. Our actual playing standard is Grade 4 competition-playing standard. We continuously work with our Scottish teachers on tone, finger-technique and ensemble playing to get better in our regular competition participations.
The band is trained by experienced players and is constantly recruiting players from all over north Germany. Friendships and regular exchanges with other bands, as well as taking part in international piping and drumming schools are encouraged and supported by us and our club the Bundesliga Football Club St. Pauli (established 1910).
Our kilt tartan is „Cameron of Erracht, modern“ (The Cameron Highlanders).
