Me playing a French Instrument called a Bombarde with the drummers at the COSM's Full Moon Celebration. The Bombarde is a French Folk Oboe or double reed instrument from Bretagne region of France also played in Cornwall as well. The Bombarde has nearly impossible back pressure so you can only play in short burst, but it is very loud, and has almost the exact same fingering as a Penny whistle. you can get an affordable Bombarde from Hobgoblin Music....... www.Hobgoblin-usa.com......also a bagpipe reed will work with this instrument as well, but I mean the type of reed you would use for the chanter of the highland pipes..... not one of those plastic practice chanter reeds though
