I keep coming back to this video once in a while, everything is just amazing: the pipe tuning, the variations, the rhythm passage from hornpipe to reel, the speed increase, the key drop... Awesome!

Can you PLEASE explain and provide a link that shows how you did the key change like that? I’m a new piper that played saxophone for many years. Anytime I try to ask a piper how to make chromatic alterations to the tonality they look at me like I’m speaking Chinese. I don’t know how to speak bagpipe well enough to ask in a manner that will get me understood by a piper. I’m dying to know. Thank you in advance for taking the time to respond. :)

[@madpixie02]

Yes, give me a couple of days, I'm busy right now. Quickly, it depends on the chanter you play and the mix of chanter and reed you use. I have a chanter here that was never able to give me a F natural. I tried many kind of reeds but it never worked. On our band chanter, I can get it only with Mallelan reeds. Anyway I'll give you more details later. You can search for bagpipe cross fingering or false fingering.

[@madpixie02]

You can read this. At the bottom of the page he talks about it a bit. www.bagpipejourney.com/articles/finger_positions.shtml

[@Jiggamus]

Thank you! :)

[@madpixie02]

@@Jiggamus can you give me your email. I have recorded a very small video showing the fingering. I would send it to you.
