    It’s such a shame there is so much background noise here, although I appreciate that someone has captured Fin just piping away!

    The acoustics/recording is amazing! "Good job" to whoever set up the microphones! (I suppose the piping itself is quite nice as well 😘.. I never get sick of the elbow pipes; such a magical instrument!)

    What a fantastic video, top marks! I would have loved to have seen the technique on how to solder the brass work.

  • @chrismills2012
    @chrismills2012 2 роки тому

    that was quite different, you don't often hear a whole pipe band of Northumbrian small pipe players, it's usually people playing them individually.

    A first class helpful video and very enabling, thank you.

    Certainly a lot to take onboard. So I am rather pleased I have a copy of Richard Butler's manual as back-up. I do however really appreciate what you have done for starters, there is really no substitute for seeing these jobs done, therefor these videos are worth a lot for the beginners, so thanks for your time. It is supremely clear to me that you truly love the whole culture of the pipes.

    I have a problem like this with the reeds of my Irish pipes. Will the technique of removing the tuning slides get them working again?

    @patgibsonguitar5000 3 роки тому

    Thank-you for posting Mr. McKeon's music. I'll be on the look for more, if 'e 'as any about. It did take a wee bit to tune and warm up - but once he did that, it was superb. What an impeccable piper I ain't ever heard of before.

      He has a son called Sean Mckeown who is an absolute wizard on the pipes too.

    • @herecomeseveryone7562
      @herecomeseveryone7562 3 роки тому

      He has two solo albums; the first 'Irish Piping Tradition,' & a relatively new one 'The Turning of the Geese.' He also has an excellent album with his two sons, Conor & Sean, 'The Dusty Miller'

    It's great to have the most basic things spelled out, because they aren't all obvious. And as for "That is the sound of a reed dying". - It had me cringing worse than with the screech of nails on a chalkboard. Salutary!
