Yes, the Irish play bagpipes, as found in Scotland. There are many pipe bands in Ireland that use them. However, the Irish also have their own form of bagpipes called the Uilleann pipes. These use a bellows controlled by the arm, rather than blowing into them. They are more associated with traditional Irish music, and have a different sound to the bagpipes that are associated with Scotland.
Why are the bagpipes associated with Scotland?
Hi. If you are asking did the "Great Highland Bagpipe" originate in Scotland then I would have to say yes although there are several areas within the UK that have their own versions. They were brought over to the UK way back when the Romans invaded. I think they got them from the Asians or Africans.
How many bagpipe players are there in the world?
I'm from Scotland and i play the bagpipes. I don't have an exact number but from my experience with tattoos and general knowledge i would have to say the number must be up in the 100,000's. There is a hell of alot of folk in Scotland that play the pipes, but it's not the only country with pipebands. There are pipeband all over the world, in just about every continent so it wouldn't surprise me either if the number was in the millions.
