      The Irish bagpipes were identical to the Scottish bagpipes, they were outlawed by the British so they fell out of use. The uilleann pipes were invented in the 18th century. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uilleann_pipes#History

    In Ireland the "Bagpipes" were "Píobaí Choghaidh" - "War Pipes".
    The sitdown and play - "elbow pipes/píobaí/Uileann" were for peacetime.
    Both are great if you can play them well. The Pipes unite the Scottish and the Irish Gaeil.

    The Highland Pipe chanter is in A, thus the scale being G, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, A (Highland pipe Notation) The A-440 scale is actually G, A, B, C#, D, E, F#, G, A or A Mixolydian. The Uilleann Piper is playing in D Ionian with drones in D. The Highland Piper is using the D note as the root tone, which puts the chanter in D Ionian, same as the Uilleann Piper. Any other modes for either piper would be quite difficult to pair the 2 without some difficult fingerings. Or, some strange harmonies.

      All bagpipes, including these, can come with a variety of tunings. Only the chanter is fixed in one key. Drones, regulators etc, are usually tuneable. The uilleann pipes are the most tuneable, and chanters in different keys can be changed.

      @@ALBA-js3um no they are Scottish not the oldest bagpipes in the world are Irish and they were found in county wicklow
      sites.google.com/site/bagpipersforhireireland/oldest-bagpipes-in-the-world-are-irish
      the Irish warpipes were outlawed by the English because too many of the Irish rebellions were led by bagpipers and when the wild geese were put to flight after the treaty of limerick many of them joined up with the French army and Irish brigades were formed and these warpipers also joined and they played the warpipes well into the the 18th century and this can be seen at the battle of fontenoy when after fierce fighting between the wild geese and the Scottish highlanders the wild geese finally beat their British oppressor's across the ocean and to spite the scots whilst they were licking they're wounds the Irish warpipers struck up they're pipes and played St Patrick's day and the white cockade which is an old Jacobite song meant by the Irish pipers to remind the scots of who they are. and the uilleann pipes are the way the Irish got around the British ban which was a ban on all bagpipes which were played standing up so the Irish adopted the warpipes initially to the pastoral pipes and then to the uilleann pipes. and the scots got the warpipes from the Irish conscript's who were forced to fight the Scottish rebellion's led by Wallace and Robert the Bruce and the scots noticed the frenzy that the Irish were put into by the warpipers and one way or a another got a set of the pipes and a player and learned how to play them and used them to the same effect. and after the Jacobite's were crushed by the British they were only allowed to keep they're pipes if they bowed to the British and succumbed to their rule and the scots for the most part complied and were allowed to keep their bagpipes and their stolen title of their claim to the bagpipes being their own, and eventually the bagpipes were changed from the two drone Irish version to the three drone Scottish variant. so in summary the modern bagpipes are indeed Irish in origin not roman or Babylonian and not Scottish or English the scots were only allowed to keep them because the succumbed to the British rule and the modern form is only Scottish because they added a drone and absolutely nothing else but the title and the only reason it is considered Scottish is because it is parroted by ignoramuses and scots.

      Feargal Mac Fitheach A 440 is standard GHB tuning and is what bands and solo players use, Richard Parkes pipes are tuned to just sharper than Bb to match the Uillean pipes. A 440 is not a great tuning for stuff like this unless the piper is alone. Bb is though because it’s easier to play with other musicians and sounds nicer. And though Smallpipes sound nice, they would be bad for this setting.

    My tuning meter says a "D" @ A=440 hz. from the Irish Drones at the start.
    The Scots Drones are corked off (silent) and it's the Irish Pipe Drones
    that are playing into the Sound System.
    That's a GHB Chanter in A=440 which sounds so good unlike the
    modern Bb plus 48 cents.
    I 1st heard Mr.Stewart on "The Irish Country 4" LP (Topic Records ?) in 1974.
    The Piper that taught him was Frank McFadden of Belfast, who I met just
    a month before he passed away in the Fall of 1975.

    Highland pipe "a" is b-natural today or above, 480+. In the 1990's I rebuilt my Highland chanter to play A-440 for folk band and orchestra before the first professional makers began making alternate pitch Highland pipes. This is an excellent presentation of uilleann and Highlands tuned together. I have an 1850's uilleann pipe bass drone with main bore proportions same as 1910's Highland Henderson GHB drones. Some clever people, maybe the same people, may have got inside both bagpipes long ago.

    This must be a fairly old recording, I hardly recognised Richard Parks. A brilliant piper and currently Pipe Major of Field Marshall Montgomery Pipe band, the reigning World Champions. Thanks for posting.

    @MrJohnered GHBs have no stop key mechanism. It's quite simple to stop and start the chanter while keeping the drones going, but it does require careful pressure control over the bag.

  • @bcpipes
    @bcpipes 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    good question, cellomaster. You are correct that the modern GHB is in Bflat. Early on they were lower pitched around A. Apparently this particular piper has an A chanter. Note, also his drones are not playing. Quite possibly B flat drones. UP's play this way with A border pipe all the time.

  • @inderbendernation5185
    @inderbendernation5185 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    The Highland Pipe chanter is in B Flat, although the music notation is written using the "A' instead. Most likely because in the old times the chanters were in A and the music was written accordingly. The chanters are now in Bflat but the music has been left as it was.

  • @keesdingjan1922

    IMPRESSIVE ! I play neither of those, but when I'm well informed it takes
    two or more years to learn to play the Highland bagpipes,
    and even LONGER to get along with Uilleann pipes...

    • @blakehollingshead813
      @blakehollingshead813 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      It takes about 7 years on a full set to master the GHB and about 21 years to master the Uillean pipes

    Jade Tiger, you're a opened-mind person. You know, the thing that really counts in music is sharing, between people, musicians and different traditions and cultures.
    For the people who like bagpipes duets, you should listen to Ross Ainslie (Border Pipes) and Jarlath Henderson (uilleann pipes). Their album is called "Partners in crime" and it's also wonderful. Have a good day...
