@fluffytom82 The Piva ticinese is similar, but not identical to the north-italian one, and it has been gone for 50-100 yrs, that's why you can speak of "rediscovery".

(cont.) The piva has always been a bagpipe. It is seen in old traités by Praetorius and Mersenne, in the encyclopedia of Diderot and many other books.
I could agree if you say he "re-introduced" the instrument in Switzerland, or he "made the instrument popular again". But he didn't discover it.

@LeoVallo Saying that you "rediscover" something implies that it has been lost. Also, he doesn't mention any "piva ticinese". Her litterally says (0:50 into the clip) "I interviewed elderly people who spoke of an ancient instrument called the piva. I discovered this was actually a bagpipe."
He probably read about it on the internet or in some book about traditional instruments, but it wasn't his discovery.

@fluffytom82 He rediscovered the Piva Ticinese, he never implies to have rediscovered the the Italian Piva or that such instrument was lost there, there is a lot of difference.

Amazing....this guy is struggling to keep an ancestral instrument and culture alive, and that is one of the noblest deeds a man can do.
The one who forgets its roots, loses its identity...
Bravo!

Hmmm... He "rediscovered" the piva? His search led to Scotland and South-Italy? The piva is a bagpipe from northern Italy and has been played there as early as the 50's. This guy takes credit for finding a traditional instrument that has never been gone...

Were the dudelsachen played in German Switzerland?

Good ear! Yes. The Zamogna he is playing is from the Molise/Abruzzo region (Probably from town of Scapoli in Molise). A modern trend with the pipers in this region is that they plug up the high drone (or use a dummy pipe) and then drill two holes in the end of the back drone. They use the left hand thumb to cover the holes, which when uncovered plays the higher note. If they only uncover one hole it plays the flat note. So essentially they are turning the back drone into a third chanter!
