The Mermaid's Song

In 1906 Tom and Henry Clough played for the king and queen at Alnwick Castle. Recently a silver medal turned up, presumably presented to Henry Clough to mark that occasion.  I felt it deserved a tune too.  Pipes made by Tom Clough and Fred Picknell.

Early Hohner Club Model II - restored for a customer. There;'s a beautiful tone from this instrument - a rich full bass and amazing clarity from the treble end. The zinc reedplates in these vintage boxes never fail to deliver.
