Chiff and Fipple Forums

Music Rooms (hurrah hurrah!!) are great! I've got a Chickering grand piano, my uilleann pipes, a couple modest (but great) Generation whistles, mandolin, hohner mouth harps, a gorgeous little 26 string Fisher harp, hand carved Québécois wooden spoons, and a few other doodads. It's taken years to acc...

Actually we've had threads on this before, and my Oak makes my lips numb/tingly too. Who did you caontact? (email address or phone number would be great)

Cheers

Whoa Jim - thanks for the Mac program link. For those of us with discriminating computer tastes - who are constantly challenged to find good software!;-)

Not sure what kind of pipes you're referring to (there are quite a number:-) ), however, uilleann pipers in a group of other musicians usually have concert pitch which is key of D. This is certainly the most common, however there are many pipers with B, C and C# and occassionally the odd Bb, but gen...

I'm feeling compelled to remark. 20K to 25K is a whole lot of dough to spend on an instrument. I'm very certain that there are other instrument sthat can garner such a price. Classic violins, a resaonably nice grand piano, few of a kind guitars, &c... This is an opportunity for someone to purcha...

I found a snippet of music on this site - I think it requires a little registering and stuff. But it is there;-)

Me = amateur
You = experts

My Generation C + enormous amounts of air to make second octave solid = loud

On another note - - - mammoth Ivory mounts - - I hope that's not a description of size!!

Well after 25 years a guy should get a bonus don'tcha think?:-)

Makes me think of those small cigar humidors - they actually have a gauge inside them so you can balance the humidity levels. So after your reeds dry out you could enjoy a puff or two;-) I remember trying a similar method with ziploc baggies - but after a week or so, the contents (a piece of wood) s...
