Hi, normally if someone is going to learn the pipes, outside of their teenage years, it's because the've fallen in love with the instrument and are suited to the quirky dedication that's needed to keep it up despite the difficulties. If you're just learning for a few sets in a group then I would say...

Hi i was just wondering if anyone had an email address for Andy May piper/pipemaker. If so, I would be grateful if you could either post it or pm me. Thanks.

I played Martin Preshaw B & C recently. Both were really good.

I'm selling an Alan Burton D chanter made from ebony and brass. It is an excellent chanter that plays beautifully in tune and has a fantastic reed. Unfortunately, I must sell due to financial reasons. Price: €750 plus shipping Contact: piobairemor@hotmail.com YouTube video: http://m.youtube.com/watc...

I'm selling a keyless Olwell Pratten made from African Blackwood. The flute is only several months old. It has a “French-style” tuning slide, also called half-lined in sterling silver where the tubing does not project into the embouchure area, which I feel gives it a more responsive feel. The body o...

I have a Makoto Nakatsui D chanter for sale made from ebony, boxwood and Nickle silver. It has one Cnat key. This is a great chanter from an up and coming new maker. It has a lot of the great characteristics associated with the work of Leo Rowsome. Reason for sale: need money to purchase of an olwel...

Thanks.

I know the second tune as 'Bean a' Tí ar Lár'. Tommy Reck played it.

Friends, I just want to put up this link to a few videos of a set of pipes made by a new pipemaker, Paddy Hyland from Laois, Ireland. The pipes played here are Paddy's first 3/4 set, the regs are the first set of regs he ever made, they are the prototype. The pipes are really good and Paddy is a gre...

That's great but there's a difference between for sale and selling.

The chanter she's playing is made from laburnum by Paddy Hyland from Laois. He's a new maker, only been making pipes for about 3 years and only started selling a few months ago. I have a fantastic 3/4 set in ebony from him, his first 3/4 set, it'd be hard to find a better pipemaker.

I can see the photos on my computer online, why would that be? I don't know much about this
