Thanks Steven :-)

I'll check those out, Bob!!  Thanx a bunch!

Hulme, have you checked out some of the piping sites (I like Dunsire bagpipe forum). There is a "for sale" section where you could get a set of used pipes for a very decent price (I have had such luck!)s well as Facebook Small Pipes groups.

Nice combination,Bob!

Twice I've been bass drummer for pipe bands  You learn a lot just hanging around with pipers...  I'd love to learn to play, but pipes aren't cheap and I'm on a Social Insecurity budget.   I play pennywhistle and the fingerings are similar.  I found a guy who has plans to make small pipes using PVC for the drones and a penny whistle for the chanter.  I might give that a try, and turn them into cauld wind pipes rather bag blown.

Thanks Lexie. Learning how to navigate the site :) 

Thanks Sheryl! Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks Ken. Sounds like you're familiar with various small pipes. I'm new at it- going on three years. 

Beautiful, I really enjoy the pipes. I am pleased that your loading of the video worked out for you.

Ah!   Now this I can see and hear.  Beautiful job -- both on the pipes and assembling the photos...   I really love the cauld wind pipes.  They're much more 'personal' than the GHB, and as quiet as Shuttle Pipes and other small pipes...

Here is another attempt to attach a video.

It is my Small Pipes and dulcimer, playing "My Dashing Darling" ( aka 'Will ye follow Charlie' )

I enjoyed your soundtrack, Bob. Loved the pipes. Great job!

Your link worked for me and I thought it sounded very good. Keep it coming and you'll get the videos to load right next time.

Thanks Randy- Im glad the link worked!

I  sure like the sound you get here Bob. That's a heckava good tune 

I dont know how to edit my post.. ugh.  Any suggestions?

Something is amiss with the recordings  They're jammed over to the side, and I can't seem to get them to play.  I've played dulcimer with a Small Pipes piper myself; and you're right -- the combination can be magical...

I have been learning the Scottish Small Pipes for about a year, and thought to make a recording of my piping and my Appalachian dulcimer together. The two seem to work nicely- hope you enjoy
