Thread Name: playing traditional music correctly
Subject: RE: playing traditional music correctly
Fridays at 0600-0800MST, www.CKUA.com livecasts Celtic Music. Many variations on the "traditional" music are played. One group (can't remember the name at the moment) is using bagpipes in a new way that sounds wonderful to me, but is hated by some so-called "traditional" pipers. Every age had its inovators who played the way they felt, and ADDED to the "traditional" base. Every age had its beginners. It all adds up to a great wealth of music. If you are happy with your "style" and continue to progress, the audience will be the richer for it. It's all great stuff.
