GUEST,Peter Laban Uileann pipes and Louis XIV (20) RE: Uileann pipes and Louis XIV 02 Jan 16


Never heard the story but I'd say, nonsense. The only link between Louis' court and the pipes could be the Musette de Cour as suggested in this article: From Hotteterre to the Union Pipes.

Several types of bellows blown pipes are ducumented well before the Union pipes arrived in Ireland.
