Dr. Raphael Pazo, Highland Bagpiper
Premiere Solo Piper, Instructor, Composer, And Arranger Of Music For The Great Highland Bagpipes
I was born into a family of gifted musicians who encouraged and supported my musical education from an early age. My first music teacher was my father, Don Rafael Pazo, who taught me to play Spanish guitar when I was 4 years old. My mother also enrolled me in private piano lessons until I was accepted at the Escuela Libre de Música and the Instituto de Música Juan Morel Campos in my native Ponce, Puerto Rico, where I studied piano, violin, viola, voice, theory, solfège counterpoint, choral music, ear training, and music dictation. I sang in a boys’ choir and a chorale, and played violin and viola in the institute’s chamber music orchestra and the youth symphony orchestra.

The Highlight of our Wedding Ceremony
Such a wonderful experience from the start to a *very* big finish with Dr. Pazo! He made scheduling easy. Provided us ALL of the options for our music choices and his attire. So professional. And frankly, a delight of a person. His performance was THE HIGHLIGHT of our wedding ceremony.
Thank you Dr. Pazo! For those of you looking for a fabulous experience for your next event, this is the musician for you.

Perfection, Heartfelt
I had the privilege to hire Raphael Pazo play bagpipes at a military event in Ione. He played with such perfection that it was heartfelt. I would hire him again. Thank you Raphael
