Thread Name: I got a bombarde!
Subject: RE: I got a bombarde! Me too
Hello everybody

I play the bombarde in our german pipeband *glencoe-highlanders.de*

It takes

* a good instrument * a good reed and * some years of practice

to be able to produce nice, loud tunes on the bombarde. Then, especcially in Bretagne, France the players are able to play for hours in Kan an Diskan-Dialogue with the binou, another bombarde or even an church-organ. Strange, but they play with amplification at the festou-noz.
