Greek Orthodox

Last Sunday I played while people exited the church after a Greek Orthodox wedding. I was lucky enough to see some of the ceremony, which was very beautiful and very solemn. I don't know if I was the first piper to play at that church, but the people seemed to enjoy it very much, proving once again that pipe music is universal. I received a request for "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling," and I was happy to play it, several times. I also played, The Wearing Of The Green, Danny Boy, and A Nation Once Again. The Greeks are certainly no strangers to Irish themes, and vice versa. I know this, thanks to James Joyce, I think.
