Dear Vicki. I found this tune to be really wonderful and can see you put a lot more into than the notes on the sheet could convey. I play the ssp`s by maker Murdo out of Arran. I tune in on A and switch out a drone to tune in on D, but after listening to your tune, I realize neither of my setups sounds anything remotely similar to your fine pipe and fine piping. If I may ask, what does your chanter tune in at, and are your drones on a 5th and on the tonics? SUPER CURIOUS! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!
The link in the info box goes to "In the Kitchen" and "On the Mash"... Fabulous tunes, but not "Scotty's Last Munro", which is a great, haunting little aire.
This is an accurate adaptation of the articulatory expression consistant in effective piping. Even experienced pipers can learn something from this gal.
Hi vicki - lovely playing and a great tune!!! Ive just rejoined the lbps after a break (marriage and child related!!) and and getting back into it again.
I don't play the Highland Pipes so I don't really know. I do find it quite hard to go from border pipes to smallpipes though as there is a difference in the pressure on the bag.
I'm trying to learn the chanter, tho' this stuff is a bit complicated for a beginner, you're very inspiring . . . THANKS!

Hello!
The pipes I've got in this piece are Smallpipes in D. I've got two drones on, both are tonic Ds and octave apart. I hope this helps!

Is it a hard transition to switch from the highland pipe to the smallpipe? I still have a couple months to go with just practicing the chanter.

I've also found that border pipes are a great deal more pressure sensitive than smallpipes. Very nice sound and a very nice tune.
