Lindsay Davidson (9 April 1973, Scotland)〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Scottish Music Centre on Lindsay Davidson )〕 was taught the Great Highland bagpipes by Pipe Major James Inglis of Wallacestone and District Pipe Band from aged nine. He was the last person Inglis taught before his death. Later instructors included Bert Barron MBE, P/M John Matheson, BEM and John Graham. Bands included Boghall and Bathgate and Torphichen and Bathgate (during their highly successful period 1986–1989). Lindsay was the first person in the world to study for a music degree specifically and exclusively as a piper (1994 Edinburgh University). He later was awarded a postgraduate diploma (1996) in the double specialisation of composition and computer sound synthesis and his PhD (2007) in composition (Napier University, Edinburgh). He also holds a PGCE (general teaching qualification) from the University of Sunderland. Lindsay currently lives in Poland. For a period of five years Lindsay ran a school of piping (The Davidson School of Piping) and a bagpipes supply service, The Complete Piping Service.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bagpipe Resources )〕 These ceased to trade when he started to spend more time in Poland. Successor organisations were Bridgend and District Pipe Band, Barnton Pipe Band, Polmont Pipe, amongst others. Lindsay is one of a very few professional concert pipers in the world and shares his base between Scotland and Poland, where he regularly performs with his harpist wife, Irena. He is employed as a Court Composer to the Baron of Ardgowan and also to the Barony of Fulwood and Dirleton and holds honorary positions as Clan Piper (Clan Davidson) and was Town Piper to his home town of Linlithgow, Scotland for nine years. Many articles about Lindsay Davidson have appeared in a wide range of special interest and mass media publications and broadcast services across the globe such as the BBC, ABC, The Guardian, Piping Today magazine, The Scots Magazine, The Sunday Herald, and The Scotsman. ==Composing== Lindsay Davidson has specialised in synthesising the bagpipe and orchestral traditions. His PhD thesis (2007)〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=British Library e theses online service )〕 concerned creation of a new technique of composing of 'classical' music, manntaireachd, which unites pibroch and orchestral music. He has written the world's first 'bagpipe opera', ''Tulsa'', to a libretto in Scots by Dr Tom Hubbard, concerning the Tulsa Race Riots in 1921 and in particular the part played in trying to prevent this by Charles William Kerr, and three other operas. He has also composed a symphony 'From Beyond' using manntaireachd and a chamber symphony, likewise using manntaireachd. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lindsay Davidson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
