Present Shame and Further Woe is a fantasia in b-flat for the bagpipes. It is an exploration of South Asian Anglophilian nostalgia for the former British Empire, its traditions and subcultures–most notably those concerning William Shakespeare, (See Also: Macbeth, Muhammad Ali Jinnah), and other offenses like the English spelling of theatre rather than theater.’ Revive, look up, and bear this work of heaven with patience.
