Actually this set of pipes is a 'G' set. The drones are G, g and g' so the bagpipe and Gurdy drones are playing at a fifth apart while the melody lines are in unison.
what is the Key of the instruments,, normally the drones of the Bagpipe are a or e and the Hurdy gurdy drones are c or G.. with the trumpet either d or c..
so normally bagpipe and Hurdy Gurdy sounds strange.. but this seems to work.. so whats the drones and trumpets strings set to?
