Edinburgh
Castle, Military Tattoo. The tattoo refers to the drummer’s task
of calling the military to arms. Today, the tattoo summons hundreds of
musicians from across the world to Edinburgh each year. At dusk, the castle
creates a magnificent back-drop, bathed by a changing array of colors. The
castle’s great oak gates sweep open to the swell of the pipes and drums. As the
bands march out in hundreds across the drawbridge, they rouse the crowd with
the precision of their complex movements and musical synchronicity.
