The Shedd's Music & World Cultures program presents The Eugene Pipe & Drum band.
Friday May 2nd, 10:15 am
Jaqua Concert Hall, The Shedd

The Eugene Highlanders band began in 1953 under the direction of PM Hector Smith who served as pipe major for over fifty years. They continue in that spirit to keep the music flowing, bringing history alive and carrying bagpiping, highland drumming and dancing forward as a living art form. Playing at Highland Games and other Celtic events around the region and have proudly kept the Scottish tradition and history alive in Eugene for many years.
The Shedd’s MUSIC & WORLD CULTURES program offers a wide variety of cultural enrichment performances each year. All of these programs are entertaining for children and adults alike, while also having an educational underpinning to set the music in its cultural and historical context. We provide each participating teacher with a large, integrated curriculum packet that includes the words for the songs, vocabulary words, extra activities, reading suggestions, and more.
