Biography:
 
The undisputed premier-league leaders of Brittany?s pipe-band scene - having won its national championships a record-breaking 18 times - Bagad Kemper have also broken new ground in cross-fertilizing Breton traditions with other musical styles. Adapting classical orchestration techniques, together with rock elements, their pioneering original compositions have boldly taken massed bagpipes, bombardes and drums where none have gone before.

Their open-minded spirit that has enabled the Bagad band to add new sounds to traditional pieces, tunes from different regions, to invite various foreign musicians to share the stage with them, or again to perform concerts abroad. This is precisely what made ?Azeliz Iza? the Bagad?s earlier show a tremendous success.

In 2006 they presented a new program with bagpipes, bombardes and drums joined by sounds of the accordion, the bass guitar, the trumpet, the saxophone and other brass instruments, giving the whole show a Latin flavor.
