I play the bagpipes to and coming from this tune never played it. It seems very hard to master. I haven't played in years but want to get back into it again. Very good playing!!

[@lachiedickmusic]

Thanks!

[@curts_uniquecomposites]

These two tunes sound great together! I recently learned Pumpkins Fancy and now this makes me want to learn Kenny Gilles of Pornalong. Are you able to provide the sheet music? I’m having trouble finding it.

[@lachiedickmusic]

This is my own setting as a Hornpipe. Not written down yet I’m afraid!

[@theMIKEhagan]

Well it’s very well done. If you ever put it down on paper I’d definitely be willing to buy it from you

[@leee4629]

That ending was sick didn’t expect the other half nice

[@lachiedickmusic]

Thanks!

[@chinngis83]

I love the arrangement of KGOP. Do you have the sheet music for it?

[@sinocaig]

oh man...love the hornpipe version the jig is one of my favs.......where can I get the sheet music for the hornpipe

[@lachiedickmusic]

Thanks for watching. Sheet music is available here: www.lachiedickmusic.com

[@Rudi.D]

wow....nice played...wish my fingers where a lot younger...I must keep it with slower tunes...

[@lachiedickmusic]

Thanks for watching!

[@JBrooksNYS]

I love this song. I thought it would be a little too much for me but I've been working on it for a couple months and I can actually make it through the song slowly. But im still wanting to know.... what the hell is a fancy?

[@lachiedickmusic]

Your guess is as good as mine!

[@TheDrumabit]

Very nice finger work and sound . ♥️Loved it. What chanter is that ?

[@lachiedickmusic]

Thanks! G1 chanter and reed

[@Khalikhalzit]

That's an interesting arrangement of Kenny Gilles. I like it a wee bit.

[@lachiedickmusic]

Thanks! Something a bit different!
