Happy International Bagpipe Day everybody!
I’m sad to say this attempted pipebag for my hummelchen didn’t work very well (as it made them unplayable!), though I still think the concept was sound.

Amanda Babington is doing a follow up to her baroque musette album “Music for French Kings” - cool kids will be backing it now to help make sure it happens!

I hadn’t listened to any Jack Armstrong for ages until last night - I love the simplicity of his playing. Here he is with Proudlock’s Hornpipe, which this recording gives a forename to too (which I had forgotten) -
Do you have any good folk music to share this #TuneswapTuesday?

Brought on my my recent reading, I wanted to remind y’all that Dave Shepherd’s “Rose of Raby” is an excellent tune and sounds lovely on the smallpipes. I’ve even played it on my own hummelchen recently!
Anyone else have a folk tune to share this #TuneswapTuesday ?

Songe à la douceur
D'aller là-bas écouter cette musique bourdonnante qui tabasse."
