Best Answer

The Bagpipes are a Scotish instrument played by a mixture of a recorder like pipe and a large bag. The recorder like part makes the notes and the bag that becomes full of air gives it its volume and sound. Some people say that if you can play a recorder, it would be much easier to learn the bagpipes.
