Orchestra Macaroon formed in 2004, from a group of musicians who got together to create an album, Breakfast In Balquhidder. The critically acclaimed album consists of original compositions by Colin Blakey, and features combinations of percussion, yang qin, horns, strings, and several species of bagpipes, around a core trio of piano, double bass and drums.
