Northumberland evolved in a similar way to Scotland, in that the Northumbrian pipes developed a tradition of showpieces in the local idiom designed for performance to the elite. Nowhere else in England had such a development. (James Hill's music for the dancehalls and pubs of Newcastle and Gateshead doesn't have anything like it, for that matter, though Hill could certainly have composed slow display tunes if he'd needed them).

Anyway we want Berwick back, please.
