March & Reels- smallpipes, fiddle, guitar

[@BeardsleyMark]

Beautiful. The pipes are special. Years ago I was eating lunch in a country pub in Ireland and two guys met and played the smallpipes and a fiddle, each in turn, while they ate their lunch. Then they played a couple songs together and left to go back to work. One of the best shows I have ever been to.

[@BeardsleyMark]

@@daithiobeag Thank you! I did not know the real name for the pipes! Now i am going to be haunting KZbin for songs featuring them.

[@Hagrid123]

These are Scottish small pipes (the finger work is the same as the highland pipes) in Ireland, they have Uilleann pipes (pronounces “ilan” which means “elbow” in Irish Gaelic) They have a completely different set up and an extra octave that is highland pipers could only dream of. 😂)

[@TheMadPiper72]

That not only sounded great, but it looks amazingly fun.

[@WillTaplin]

Great to see people just jamming out in the backyard. Those are some of my favorite times personally, and I can tell you guys really enjoy it too! I had just watched a handful of videos from you guys, but I had to open my mouth on this one because on this one you gave guitar dude a piece of wood this time, and he rocked it like nobodies business. Got me pumping my fist! More guitar guy on the piece of wood!

[@jesseschwendiman6716]

Personalizes music and above all skill with such. Timeless.

[@staceyunderwood5481]

I could literally listen to you guys all day! ❤

[@shrewsbrewery183]

Oooft that reel is amazing, the pipes, feet tapping and fiddle damn! It got me going!! Love it!

[@rowanhartsuiker]

This is gold. The first march is amazing and the reel that follows.... oooooh yeah. The 3 of you are awesome!

[@EdExploresScotland]

Oh goodness. Wonderful. (I know just how flippant that sounds, but it was a genuine comment. When the toe-tapping came in I knew we were at a different level.)

[@MichaelRoddy]

Thanks very much, Ed!

[@inkedoutmiss]

This is bringing me so much peace and happiness!

[@johnrichard8235]

so glad that people remember this .. brings me back

[@robsealsey5052]

Its interesting. The tap of your feet, especially with the weighted beat, remind me of the beating of a horses hooves at a canter.

[@WilliamStPeter-uh1hy]

Wicked good playing! I love hearing the Reels, they are super fun to play too!

[@hypospade]

Thats great ! We need more of this !!

[@johnbrown3711]

Gosh...where do y'all perform live...?? Stupendous!

[@stevenleclair5436]

Heeeey that was so fun to listen to, thank you for reigniting my desire to pick the pipes back up!

[@vinceayub5424]

Love your sound. Is the 2nd set of pipes Border Pipes by Burgess in the Key of A

[@Thefox2000unit]

Doesn't look like it. Burgess pipes are sleek modern looking pipes that are ABW and titanium.

[@jesseschwendiman6716]

Anyone know the name of the first one they played? Fantastic btw

[@MichaelRoddy]

Thanks, Jesse! Tunes are all listed in the description. Cheers!

[@jesseschwendiman6716]

...ah right (duh Jesse) Cheers

[@garmisra7841]

Great job folks!! Is that guitar tuned in DADGAD?

[@caseyphudson]

YEE HOO, is right.

[@henryblassingame9060]

You had me until the Easy Club Reel… where is the GHB coming from?

[@MichaelRoddy]

Hi Henry. Easy Club is a great tune, but it’s not in this set. Tunes are listed in the description. No GHB either, just smallpipes then border pipes. Cheers!

[@rumeunner3245]

What make are your small pipes and border pipes? Both sound really great.

[@MichaelRoddy]

Nate Banton and Fin Moore. Thanks!

[@chocolatebox8472]

Wondering about the change in pipes; was that a necessary change of key, or just different type of pipes?

[@Ceol-Cluaise]

The first set of pipes are the Scottish Smallpipes, while the second is a stand of Reelpipes (also known as Border pipes or Lowland pipes). Reelpipes are set an octave higher than Smallpipes, and have a little more of a Great Highland pipes tone without the overpowering volume. Both of the bagpipes in this video have a quieter, sweeter, more mellow tone and texture than that of Great Highlands. This combined with their tuning in A makes them excellent to play with other instruments, and in private, family settings.

[@hetrodoxlysonov-wh9oo]

@@Ceol-Cluaise Aren't they Northumbrian Smallpipes?

[@Ceol-Cluaise]

@@hetrodoxlysonov-wh9oo Reelpipes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGmzmWiCqtNqia8 Smallpipes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqnMo5yEr9CJe9k Northumbrian: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYDXlHqmfp56es0 Uilleann: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJzMoIlsarijnJY The chanter build is very different between Smallpipes and Northumbrian. Smallpipes are like a bag and drones attached to a great highland practice chanter (a glorified practice chanter), while the Northumbrian has keys/levers on the chanter stock and not just open holes. Northumbrian chanters also seem to have a flat front, while Smallpipes chanters are entirely round. Beyond this, the sound of each stand of pipes--between Northumbrian and Smallpipes--is unique, with the former being higher (almost like a lighter, higher Uilleann to some people's ears). If you wanted to place Great Highland pipes on the list above, it would go above the reelpipes--that way you can hear the gradual transition in sound. Both Great Highlands and Reelpipes have conical bores, while Smallpipes have cylindrical bores. I am not sure what bore type Northumbrian have; it might have a category of its own.

[@justaweeb9086]

Is there a difference between Bagpipes and smallpipes? I've noticed smallpipe players don't blow in as often but that's it

[@Ceol-Cluaise]

Yes, there is a difference between Great Highland pipes and Smallpipes, though both are Bagpipes. It is true that the smallpipe players don't need to blow as often, as they don't have as much pressure going through the chanter and drones. This means 1) they don't need as much air to be blown in, via lungs or bellows, and 2) they sound quieter. The result is a mellower, sweeter tone. There are actually 2 kinds of bagpipes in this video. The first is a set of smallpipes. The second is a set of Border pipes, also known as Reelpipes or Lowland pipes. The Reelpipes are an octave higher than the Smallpipes, have longer drones (try rewatching the video to see this). They are also a little louder than Smallpipes, and have a tone that sounds more like a Great Highland pipe. All three bagpipes share the same fingering patterns and playing technique, and so can all be transitioned to after working on the practice chanter. Fin Moore also plays the Reelpipes and can be listened to in recordings of the 2017 Newcastle Piping Festival.

[@ruialexandre6197]

In the end what pipe is that? Sounds like a scottish marching pipe but looks like an irish elbow pipe!

[@MichaelRoddy]

Scottish border pipe :)

[@hetrodoxlysonov-wh9oo]

@@MichaelRoddy Is that the same as Northumbrian smallpipes?

[@MichaelRoddy]

@@hetrodoxlysonov-wh9oo No, different instruments. So many different pipes, eh? :)

[@김민준-e8j3p]

What country's traditional music is this type of music from?

[@billps34]

Traditionally from Scotland and Ireland.

[@johnnyprencipe696]

Fabulous tune. What pipes are those?

[@pictishboar]

Yes what is the maker

[@diegocalvorodriguez]

lovely, can someone tell me wich key is the set of pipes?

[@MichaelRoddy]

A

[@pictishboar]

What maker

[@caseyphudson]

In America, these kind folk are called "hillbillies" or worse. In fact, Irish people came to this country to escape religious persecution, famine, and the English invasion of their homes. Just like every other invader of this land. Nearly half of this country can trace their family line to Ireland.
