The ‘German Lowland Pipes & Drums - Xanten’ are a pipe band that plays traditional, Scottish and modern music on the ‘Great Highland Bagpipes’, the large Scottish bagpipes.

Some friends of the Scottish Highlandpipes met in Oerlinghausen (near Paderborn) in the spring of 2002 to make music together.

Welcome to Rhine Power! Rhine Power is a bagpipe band with more than 15 musicians based in and around the Rhineland, all of whom are passionately addicted to Scottish music.
