a lot of the tunes played on the small pipes are slighty different from the whistle, up, fiddle tune. Because the small pipes just have 1 octave and one note, some part of a tune can be played on the third or forth, or something different from the original tune ... Before the Up, I tried to play sma...

thanks
I also tried cork grease, and it works pretty well

hello

I'm cleaning my flute, and I'm going to grease the key (they are in brass). What kind of grease should I use ?

And, by the way, can I use the same grease for the tuning slide ? (which is in brass too)

Cheers !

if someone else have any informations about those bouzouki, please, tell me

Hello !

has anyone ever seen or heard or owned a troubadour bouzouki ?
what would you say, about this instrument, to a beginner that already plays guitar ?

Thank you

thank you !
and what about the permanent school, something like college of piping for GHB ? I would like to be in Ireland one year long after my studies. The school location will help to choose a place to go

hello !
I searched a thread on this subject, and I did not find really what I want.

Do you know any piping school in Ireland, where it is possible to learn the "art of piping" ? I would rather like a school, in order to lear the technics and so on, than a piper's club.

Cheers !
