A misplaced use of tradition by judges who forget that the folk tradition is and always was mutile. They tend to look to the style of an earlier generation, without respecting the musicality of players who with upwards of twenty years of playing under their belts rank as masters in their own right. The problem started in Scotland and should remain right there.
jessica plays a lot with open gracing, which we know is contreversial and not looked upon favourably in traditional circles but she was taught by kathryn tickell, jim hall and now anthony robb so she has developed her own style, also shes only 13 and likes gracing.its an age thing.
I am not sure what you mean but please remember that these are two very young kids enjoying the Northumbrian Pipes. They had only played this piece once or twice together before the competition.
Great to see this music being handed on to the younger generation....and with such talent....!!

How can you not like bagpipe after listening to this! :)
I love when it separates into two parts.

@pushyparent If you mean what I think you do, it's called 'popping' (in Irish music at least) and it's a intergral part of the music.

Lovely bagpipe. The sound is sweeter and quieter than most around. Is it hard to get Northumbrian pipes? Even if you dont live in Northumbria
