The HAPPY GERMAN BAGPIPERS are definitely the most unusual and youngest bagpipe showband in Germany, maybe even in Europe. The bandleaders are Falk Paulat and Friedhelm Ricklefs.

They have successfully created their own sound, their “Entertainment Pipe Music”, which they arrange and compose themselves. The girls have mastered sufficient titles to fill a 90 minute concert.

The Scotland Tour, which included a great many locations, was a great honour for the young band, especially the invitations to the Youth Festival in Aberdeen and the Fringe Street Festival in Edinburgh.

Thanks to their bagpipe music which the Scots love, the girls were simply passed on from one concert to the next, thus ending up with nearly twice the number of concerts originally planned.
