Scottish, or Irish bagpipe (cornemuse)? Nope, a french one:)

i like this instrument .even we maltese have something like this and is done from the skin of a small goat .by the way every country has is own traditional instruments

[segano1]

Doesn't sound like bagpipes, but then the Scots have that true bagpipe sound that no other instrument sounds anything like it.

[AlSurayah]

good sound mais le mec est super sexy!

There are native bagpipes of every single country in Europe. as well as Asia Minor, North Africa, and Central Asia.

[FabuleuxFab88]

J'aimerais savoir en jouer :) Mais pas la patience...

[OculusAquilae]

What a nice french sound, thanks!

[piobairesicago]

Merci beaucoup for sharing. Lovely piping.

[CaptLCPD]

Leave it to the French to come up with something so heavenly sounding! Thumbs up! Just awsome! Thank you for sharing.

très beau !! bravo .Tu ne serais pas venu à la MJC de la TOUR du PIN par hasard ? il me semble t'avoir déja vu avec gérard LEBARS.Pour ton souvenir, j'étais le seul élève débutant avec une 16 pouces en ébène et étain. Continues comme ça tu joues toujours aussi bien !! et si tu as d'autres vidéos , je suis preneur ! :):)

[mattdu68]

@zebulon3859

quelle surprise en lisant ton commentaire! Oui, j'ai bien suivi l'atelier de Gérard pendant 2 ou 3 ans. Que le monde internet est petit :P Tu as continué, persisté et signé dans la pratique de l'instrument?

Merci beaucoup pour ton commentaire. J'espère bientôt pouvoir poster des vidéos avec un northumbrian smallpipe ;)

[zebulon3859]

@mattdu68

Pour répondre à ta question, j'ai du pour des raisons personnelles et professionnelles me séparer de ma cornemuse car je n'avais plus le temps de pratiquer. C'est un élève de Gérard qui l'a récupéré et aujourd'hui son atelier est à Sainte Blandine.Tous les confirmés et débutants qui jouaient avec nous sont partis ! Je suis content de t'entendre sur le site. A bientôt avec d'autres vidéos ! :)

[BagpipeNic]

@mattdu68 ha oui un video avec ton Gruar !

[MsieuFred]

Ola Matt, quand es-ce tu reviens nous refaire un coucou à la MJC de Savigny ?

Un Frateux

Bise fraternelle chez toi !

[nicholasnoble]

Whats the name of this song? I like it! I want to learn it on my uilleann (Irish) pipes. What key are these bagpipes in?

[mattdu68]

good for you! ^^ I hope you enjoy this french tune played on 'musette' bagpipes then :)

[lapinos90]

Oh, j'adore vraiment les 18 pouces !

[mattdu68]

looks like there has been an argument among the comments these days. It is possible for everyone to express their opinion without being harsh and rude. Uuurk, I kinda agree with you that GHB has such a visibility that it casts a shadow on many other bagpipes very worth to listen to. Just the way to express things was maybe a little clumsy, and offending to some.

I hope you all enjoy this time of the year.

Cheers

[Uuuuurk]

sry, i just think its fun to annoy ppl sometime:)

but my point was that its just as bad/good making fun of scots as it is of french ppl. and u dont seem to have taken away paul1060 comment..

[HaileISela]

very nicely played!

[paul1060]

sounds soft, just like the fruity french. "if u make me mad.....if will write an angryy poem about you"

[bruggenfransrevenge]

hi!!!fantastic sound. ive falled in love of this sound.can you say me whi is the maker and which kind of bagpipe is this...thank so much.. iam italian too and i play zampogna and gaita

[mattdu68]

hi :)

This is one of the kinds of french bagpipes named 'musette du centre'. This is a musette '18 pouces' (which means tuned in F) made by maker Bernard Jacquemin --> first link when you google his name (don't know if allowed to give directly link here).

Zampogna and gaita are lovely bagpipes as well. But by he way, i am french, not italian ;)

have fun with your future order! see u

[gaitazampogna32]

La Scottish de Jean !!!!! Very nice tune, I learned it in G

[celticgarrison]

Play the "The man from skye" on those pipes  haha !

[peeweecoleman]

The pipes are in "F" ?

Lovely sound...

More videos of your playing please!

[peeweecoleman]

Brilliant sound and beautifully played.

[poptart777]

Just listening to this brightens my mood.

I can listen over, and over, and over again.

I'm quite envious, hmhm,

[crapaudpoilu]

Bravo Matt, tu remonte le niveau des musettes qu'on peut voir sur youtube.

Fais-en d'autres.

un frateux

[daddeddad]

Bravo!Great playing and musical mood.

[mattdu68]

thanks for the comment: I particularly appreciate the remark on the musical mood! :)

I see you are itlaian...See you maybe in St Chartier festival in July? :p

[daddeddad]

It would be great to be in St Chartier and playing with you, but during the dates of Festival I am busy.There is a sort or "reicontres de musiciens" French and Italian in Sampeyere called Lou Chanto Viol, in the vallades Occitanes of Italy, for the last week-end of August 30th-31st.I planned to be there, so if you are free, why don't you come?In any case keep in countact.A bientot

[choupoff]

Superbe ! un très joli son !!

[lovophoria]

bravo bravo bravo!! (^_^)

C'est excellent tout ca! :D

[mattdu68]

well, thanks for that friendly comment!! I learned the tune from the bagpipe method from Bernard Boulanger (..in french!). The tune is on a CD from Jean Blanchard as well. I can look around for the music sheet, if you have not already learned it by ear by now ;) Cheers

[nemethmik]

The best sounding French bagpipe ever heard.

[nemethmik]

The best sounding French bagpipe I ever heard.

[Chase55]

Well c'mon... is that really saying much?

[nemethmik]

Yep, for us pipers it is. :)

[redclaymud]

Excellent.  Didn't know there was such a thing as a French bagpipe. Must have gotten left behind by some Scottish raider years ago.

[mattdu68]

thanks for your comment! :)

Well, actually, bagpipe is an old european instrument which has spread all over Europe (there are spanish bagpipes (gaita), italian bagpipes (zampogne), polish bagpipes, etc..popular instrument, not always linked to a celtic something ;)) but the playing of most of those have fainted with time. Some countries like Scotland have a strong bagpiping tradition through time (military instrument for example).

well...things to explore! Glad you enjoy the vid ;) see u

[BagpipeNic]

Bravo Mattdu68, tu joues toujours aussi bien ! Vive la 18 pouces !
