P/M Robert Wallgren
Robert Wallgren was born in 1985 and has played
pipes with the band since 1995, when P/M Mathias Cramér started teaching
him. A few years ago he competed one season in grade one with Chris
Armstrong and David Urquhart Travel. In fact Robert has grown up steeped
in Scottish culture, since his parents have been country and highland
dancers for many years. They have also engaged themselves in the band in
may ways.
Robert's chosen pipe sergeant is former P/M Krister
Bergman. Our grade 4-band is run by former P/M Mathias Cramér.
