Subject: RE: Bagpipe Music From: Leadfingers Date: 21 Oct 04 - 07:24 AM The first thing that springs to mind is 'Define Bagpipe Music' !! Do you mean Scottish ? Or Nothumbrian ? or Irish ? or Breton ? Or even Greek if you like !! There are so many different bagpipes and styles of play . |

Subject: RE: Bagpipe Music From: Tim Jaques tjaques@netcom.ca Date: 20 Aug 97 - 07:43 PM Hamish Moore, who I mentioned here before. He is a Scot. I have his CD "Stepping On The Bridge" (Danna' Air An Drochaid) Greentrax CDTRAX 073. In that particular one he went to Cape Breton Island to learn the Cape Breton style which is designed more for dancing than marching. Liner notes explain technical differences and history, etc, for all you pipers. On it he plays the highland pipes, the border pipes, and the Scottish small pipes. (The fiddler on some of the dance pieces, incidently, is Jerry Holland, a Cape Breton fiddler of renown with his own CD's out.) The focus of the CD though is the pipes, not the fiddle and piano. I expect that he has other CD's out. Greentrax address is Cockenzie Business Centre, Edinburgh Road, Cockenzie, Mid Lothian, UK EH32 0HL if you can't get it ordered through your local shop. He even makes his own pipes! |
Subject: RE: Bagpipe Music From: Cliff McGann Date: 20 Aug 97 - 07:41 PM the two best piping Cd's available (IMHO) are Hamish Moore's Dancing on the Bridge (Greentrax 073) and Paul MacNeil and Jamie MacInnis's Fosgail An Dorus (open the Door) which is available everywhere except Canada on the Lismor label. It might even be available in Canada on Lismor but likelly not as Jamie and Paul released it independantly there. I have listened to almost every piping cd that has been released in the last 5-10 yrs and these two are the best. They aren't solo piping in the Scottish style (i.e. more classical/regimented)but more of an old style when the pipes wer played for solo stepdancing.
