Summary

"Musicians from Switzerland, Norway and Australia were among the sparkling line-up at this summer's 63rd Tattoo, which opened at Edinburgh Castle on August 3rd and ran for three weeks. As part of the 2012 international celebrations to mark the 60th anniversary of Her Majesty The Queen's accession to the throne, the Tattoo's Diamond Jubilee themed production was Scotland's Salute to the Monarch and acclaimed as one of the most impressive ever staged. As usual, the programme included music, action and colour with a touch of the unexpected, where traditional items were matched by exciting new contributions to add to the Tattoo's long list of alluring attractions. With state-of-the-art production technology, including 21st-century surround sound, compelling graphic installations and ultra-modern lighting, the show, which also celebrated the Year of Creative Scotland, dazzled a worldwide audience"--Container
