@Monroe18999 I wouldn't mind at all, but thanks to your comment I've just realized that my entire Reels folder is missing. Until I find it, there's not much hope of getting the music from me. I imagine you could find a digital copy online somewhere.
It's called "circular breathing." I take a breath, then puff up my cheeks to create a sack of air, enclose that air so I can breath through my nose independent of the air in my mouth, and my cheeks squeeze the air out through the chanter. It's easier to do with the chanter actually in the mouth, because it provides a back pressure to help keep things tight. I just breath normally and refill my cheeks as necessary.
Oh ok no problem thanks anyway and good luck finding it!!
