Thanks. Really useful video. Just to add, there was a wonderful moment yesterday when Scotland faced Italy in Rome for a Six Nations match and the Pipers of Rome (in full Scottish dress) played this. Very sportsman like I thought.
@@GetBagpipeReady All of the bagpipe methods will work on Hurdy Gurdy, all we'd have to do is fine it to F/Bb which is basically G/C but a whole step lower.
Do you have a video that goes over a good practice chanter / first set of bagpipes? I bought a practice chanter and it was some type of horrible so now I'm scared to buy another one lol.
Unfortunately if you purchase a $20 practice chanter, made in Pakistan, from Amazon, it's not any good! Any Bagpipe supply store online with customer service can sell you a Sheppard, Mcallum, RG Hardie, or Walsh practice chanter for $100 to $120. Another option is you can get a $50 chanter from my friend Davey, made in the USA! Use the coupon code GETBAGPIPE5 to get 5% off and another 5% will go to the African Blackwood conservation Project! His chanters sound great and are a lot cheaper which helps if you are on a budget or saving up for a set of pipes! www.3dprintedbagpipes.com/product-page/long-practice-chanter

I can play this on Hurdy Gurdy, a Strung Bagpipe.
that's impressive!
