At competitions highland dancers dance to bagpipes. While practicing and getting ready for competitions most dancers use bagpipes on a CD. At competitions a live bagpiper plays the music for each dancer. Every song is played on bagpipe.
For the choreography, which is something that you are able to do at the premier level, you get to pick your own music. You make up your own dance to go with this music.
The music for competitions should have bagpipes in it. It can be fun though. It could be by a band with bagpipes in it. So it would also have drumming and maybe even guitar/bass in it.
This web page explains how a bagpipe works and makes sound. It includes links for what each of the specific parts of the bagpipe do.
