The "musette" is indeed a set of modified Hamish Moore Scottish smallpipes. The guitarist is Grant Herreid, I don't think he's playing a "battente"

per se, but certainly an early style of guitar, and he had theorbo elsewhere in the piece.

such a terrible hurdy-gurdy player......plays like a beginner. Turmoil. I wish I could have been there.

Beautiful plying, but:

I say, that 'musette' looks an awful lot like a northumbrian samllpipe~!
