When staying in her Scottish home 鈥� Balmoral Castle 鈥� the Queen maintained a family tradition started by her great-great-grandmother, Queen Victoria; fifteen minutes of the skirl of the pipes at 9am, every morning.
Drum Major Brian Wilson was invited to lead pipe bands at Balmoral on several occasions and remembers Royal enthusiasm for the music. He鈥檚 joined in the memories of other Royal occasions by David Gilliland of the Ulster-Scots Community Network.
It was meant to celebrate the Queen鈥檚 Platinum Jubilee, but the exhibition just opened in Ballymoney museum is now more about commemoration. Jonnie Crawford hears more from the town鈥檚 Mayor, Ivor Wallace.
Helen Mark, Rab Lennox and Willie Hill complete the team for this week鈥檚 Kintra. As always, listeners are encouraged to get in touch with a yarn or song or poem to share or an Ulster-Scots event to promote or even just to say hello and comment on the programme. The email address is kintra@bbc.co.uk.
