This, at best, will be difficult to reproduce, but it could be done with the technique I described, then through a series of registrations. Damned I miss having my keyboard here. I would love to try this one using some of the Yamaha special movie styles I have available.
Good luck,
Gary

Ive been trying to get a realistic Bagpipes sound for Highland Cathedral.
If you play a lot of Celtic music, the Celtic board by V3 Sound is excellent. If you don't need their arranger module, they can put the board in a box and use it as an external module. You can listen to all the Celtic instrument and percussion sounds here. BTW, do you know the name of the 1st song V3 Bodhran Slow Waltz?

Next, play the melody with your right hand, using a Floyd Kramer type of fingering. I don't have my keyboard here at home right now, but if you listen to 254 in the attached midi you'll get the idea of how I do it. https://app.box.com/s/t6neciwv2k8iskswjtu2pw238r4x0nd8

You might want to consider creating a drumset containing a single sample with the bassnote/buzz generated by pressing the bagpipes..and then using a multipad to generate it,,,
This gives your left hand the freedom to play chords,, or/and an other part,,,
