The Pipe Slang

The Pipe Slang Sampler

Pibroch tune "Siubhal Sheumais"
Drones tuned to B of the chanter (which I got the tuning from Breton piping), with an alto drone for the variations of the tune. With a minor third alto drone in the first variation which was the drones with singing only, Uilliean pipes came in in the second variation with harmony, the short notes in the melody changed from Low A to B to suit the drones. 

We got the playing style from Joseph MacDonald (1760)with the Crahinin approach which suits the keening type of lament.

Played by:
Chris Lee - Borderpipes and vocal 
Gavin Hardie - Uillieann pipes and vocal
Justyna Krzyżanowska - Vocal

Recorded and mixed by Justyna Krzyżanowska.
