Kitchen piper isn't exactly right .. some scottish people do dis her playing but lots of them like it as well. True she mostly plays tunes of her and her partners own composition but I would say they are definately written within the tradition - and bloody good they are too.

There is a movement within scottish piping, particularatily within the samllpiping community, to move away from what is considered traditional playing, to demilitarise the music - this movement is meeting with stiff resistance from the established piping community.   Taking a well known 6/8 march and turning it back into a jig is exciting and gives the music a complete new lease of life. I'm all in favour of this.
