i have seen it here in cmu . . definitely rocks.

Now just get some Irish pipers and everything will be better...

[Kierantal]

@Nipponkoku I hope you mean Irish tin whistles. Irish bagpipes are far inferior and sound tinny compared to Scottish Highland pipes

[Nipponkoku]

@Kierantal I love uilleann (Irish) bagpipes. Some Irish tin whistles in addition to uilleann pipes would be nice.

[cotsyboy]

[cotsyboy]

cheers in advance

[parody121]

Good question. Does anyone know? So, the second part of the video includes a tune called Steamboat?

[figliodigiacomo]

ive got 2 sets of pipes. one set has never worked. one set keeps falling apart. very high maintenence instruments.

[GoNavy311]

Not in the hands of a capable piper

[CapoeiraPiper]

buy some hemp and a set of pipes not from pakistan. theyre really not that high maintenance

I just heard from a friend about the Bagpipe major at CMU. That's so cool that it actually exists! I've wanted to play the bagpipes since I was 4 or so and I always wondered if an American college taught it. Great playing!

[akorn45]

Do you know if piping is available as a minor at CMU or as an elective.

[karatemaster64]

you can take individual courses in bagpipe i think

[cipriani58]

That was really good

[chefd907]

that seems like a cool thing to learn how to play

[xmonox50]

Very good pipe band! Its a shame the camera didnt stay on the pipers, Alasdair Gillies is an amazing piper there needs to be more videos of him on this site!!!
