Re: Contacting Andreas Rogge
Got a nice honest note from Andreas. My order was misplaced. Reeds are on the way. Someone on the Forum may have moved it along. Many thanks, Jim

Contacting Andreas Rogge
Any suggestions on getting through to Mr. Rogge. I have sent seven e-mails over the past four and a half months trying to confirm he received a bank transfer of funds for new reeds back in April.

Re: Brief, concise uilleann info
Ironically, many Irish bands in the US, e.g. Ancient Order of Hibernia Societies, Police and Fire Department Emerald Society bands wear Scottish military pipe band uniforms, including a variety of tartans, feather bonnets and most of them play both traditional Irish and Scottish tunes. Not sure if t...

Re: THE GREAT UILLEANN YOU-TUBE THREAD.
The youtube caption indicates another person uploaded the video clip. Maybe Joey was not consulted.

Re: What makes a good slow air ?
For what it's worth if, while playing a slow air, I experience a physical symbiosis of body movement with the various phrases, rising and falling with a natural rhythm, catching a musical breath here and there, gliding along naturally, unconscious of technique that, for me, would be a "good&quo...

Looking for information about Dave Williams (RIP) flat sets, particularly pitched in C. I know the larger body of his work was Concert pitch. Any information appreciated. Best to all.

Re: Beginners whistle
Good timing for me on this topic. How about for an eight-year old little girl who seems to be a natural on her school recorder so I want to catch her early. I'm happy to spend a few more dollars if it makes a difference but I gather it's not that critical at this point. Obviously small fingers and s...
