Bagpipes start at about $900, so looking at about $10,000 for 11 sets, however for that many its wrth checking for either a bulk discount or going to the manufacturers direct, for what you were going to pay retail you might get a better set, or personalization or the like.

They were not made for any army; they were originally a solo instrument. But the British Army was the first to form pipe bands in the 19th century.

There is not much published for that combination, but most Canadian military bands have at least some they are able to loan out, generally bagpipe standards like The Black Bear and Scotland the Brave. The US Army Field Band also has some bagpipe music that can be loaned.

You are probably thinking of the term "drone" which is a constant tone that doesn't fluctuate. Bagpipes are notorious for this constant pitch (which is determiend by the tuning of the pipes themselves), but it doesn't specifically refer to a high or low pitch.

Bagpipe bellows are called bellows - all bagpipes have a bag and at least one or more pipes that produce a melody (usually called a chanter) and usually a drone. They can be further classified according to how air is supplied to the bag. "Mouth-blown" (like the most common form of the instrument, the Great Highland Bagpipe of Scotland) means air is supplied to the bag directly from the player's lungs by means of a blow pipe. "Bellows-blown" (like the Irish uillean bagpipes or Scottish small'pipes) means the air is supplied to the bag by means of a bellows (very similar to a fireplace bellows) which the 'piper straps under one elbow- the 'piper pumps air from the intake valve on top of the bellows into the bellows which then pushes it thru a blowpipe on the other side which is attached to the bag by means of a wooden "stock" or connector. The operation of the bellows has nothing to do with the music, it's just like breathing. Whether a bagpipe is mouth-blown or bellows-blown doesn't influence what the instrument sounds like- the dimensions of the chanter and drones, materials used to make the instrument and the strength and design of the reeds determine that.

Bagpipes are a musical instrument that consist of using enclosed reeds fed from a reservoir of air in a bag. People who play "the pipes" are referred to as "Pipers" or "Bagpipers". Type of bagpipes have been in existence since possibly the days of the Roman Empire, but the icon Scottish Highland bagpipes are a more recent invention, with the earliest evidence of them appearing in 1547.

Hi. Not all bagpipes have a makers mark on them. Try asking the National Piping center in scotland. they are on the internet and will be better at answering to question as they are specialists

Before playing a full set of pipes, you learn on a practice chanter. Strictly speaking, it isn't an instrument itself, just a modified part of the pipes themselves.

Yes, it still has uses, including in firearms cartridges and fireworks.

Many if not most cultures around the world have had a form of bagpipes in their cultural history, as such its hard to pin down where or when the first set came from, but the earliest evidence of bagpipes is from about 1000BC.

This was Season 7, Episode 15, The One With Joey's New Brain. Ross tries to play the bagpipes for Monica and Chandler's wedding because the groom is part Irish. He plays the song, "Celebration" by Kool and the Gang for his friends in the last scene. Phoebe tries to sing along, Rachel(Jennifer Aniston) breaks character and starts giggling while Monica and Chandler firmly say "No".

Practice chanter reeds are generally plastic now, but some pipers use cane.

Probably, but the sheep bladder is smaller and does the trick very well.

I would expect that since a "bagpipe" was most likely originally an instrument from the middle east historically the choices were a) Goat b) Sheep.... Wild boars becoming Domesticated Pigs came Much later and much further West.

Imagine a Shepard in the field having the light-bulb go off when he discovered the dead Goat bloated.... Naturally, each group of peoples had they're variation of the pipes, from the middle east and much of Africa, Asia have histories long before Scots regiments brought they're style to the Indian subcontinent, South Africa

and the Black sea region during the Napoleonic period... today besides Goat and sheepskins , Bagpipe Bags are also made from Elk-skin as well as Gortex with rubber grommets as stated these Variables are still dependant on availability and on weather in your area of play... sheepskin does not seem as durable as Elkhide, I've had an elkhide Bag since 1992, season it bi annually I live in New England summers are hot and Humid winters Cold and DRY in dryer climes such as down-under Goats and sheep might be 100 times better ..

the communists were ready to take over the world! HAHAHAHAHAH LOL
