Description: Scottish Smallpipes in A and Bb (B-Flat) By Hakam Din Crafted with absolute precision, this beautiful set of pipes offer a unique experience to professionals while also being an excellent starting point for beginners on their musical journey. This set of Scottish Smallpipes is made of Indian Cocobolo Wood, fully seasoned, relatively low maintenance and resistant to harsh weather conditions. The basic scale of the Scottish Smallpipes is identical to the Mixolydian scale of the Highland Bagpipes and uses the same fingering as them. The advantage of mouth blown pipes is that it’s easier for Highland Players to transition to smallpipes without having to learn the bellows technique, while the Bellow Blown Set offers the advantage of greater stability of tuning (due to smaller fluctuations in humidity and temperature of air across the reeds) and the possibility to sing or talk whilst playing. The pipes come with 2 Chanters in A and Bb, the Bass, Baritone and tenor drones play Bb-F-Bb but can be extended to play A-E-A depending on which chanter is being played. We've developed this set in a way that it functions as both an A and Bb Set. History: Originally one of the first documented bagpipes in Scotland, along with the Border pipes, smallpipes were popular in the Lowland areas of Scotland as far north as Aberdeen. Evidence shows them to have existed since the 15th century, when they were used for dancing and entertainment in court and castle, later they became popular amongst burgh pipers and town minstrels until the early 19th Century Scottish Smallpipes are extremely popular with Highland pipers, many of whom use them as a second instrument better suited to indoor playing, and play them according to the Highland tradition or as a quite rehearsal for the highland pipes PLEASE NOTE: Reeds are not Included in the set, compatible drones reeds can be bought from Scottish Reed Makers Pipe Dreams and Chanter Reed from Abbot Reeds, more information on that after purchase.
