Portuguese traditional folk music Bagpiper António Ribeiro 2

[comicfairy]

Man, I wish more Portuguese-Americans would use bagpipes at festas and the like. Silly that people think they're solely used in Scotland! Lol.

bagpipe is Scottish!

[zaixega]

@gaminggeek9 Bagpipe isn't only Scottish. It's an instrument played in all Europe and in some places of Asia and Africa.

HAHAHAHAHAAHAHA... portuguese with a bagpipe??? hahahahahaha¨!!!!

veeeeery traditional....haahahahhaah!!! zaixega, you wrote "portuguese & galician traditional folk music" in your info! please remove that!! People, lot's of portuguese would like to be compared to Galicians but they are not. In portugal u've a few bagpipers and its marginal and in Galicia every child learns to play a bagpipe at school so please Portugal is not Galicia!!!

[zaixega]

Now a days the portuguese ensembles are forgeting the bagpipe as Galician ensembles are forgeting the accordions. If you know at least some about folklore you should know this. And, of course, you should know yet Galician childs are learning a WRONG way of playing bagpipe, cause the traditional way of playing was closed digitation (not opened digitation) and the're is no child able to play in this way.

Keep doing offensive comments about portuguese folklore and I will have to block you.

jailender2008 you are so ignorant. Bagpipes are a Portuguese traditional instrument, played from Setubal to Tras-os-Montes for hundreds of years,

Actually, Traditional Portuguese Bagpipers can be found, not only in the North, but in the centre as well, in every small village surrounding Coimbra.

Those are not as good as galicians... they doesn't have any school. They are old, dying, forgotten, but authentic!

This side of Portuguese culture is virtually unheard of and as far as I'm concerned should be promoted more...

Bagpipers are common in the North and not only in Tras Os Montes. Bagpipers frequently follow Concertinas in Popular festivities. Check some of my vids.
