Small Pipe Bluegrass?

Post by Parsonwilks »

Are there tunes that are suitable to the range of the SSPs? I don't find a lot and most
bluegrass musicians like the key of D over A.

Hey the old time tune June Apple is fun on smallpipes. Besides that the go to book is by Timothy Cummings - 'An Appalachian Collection' - https://birchenmusic.com/product/an-app ... ollection/
