A lovely tune composed by two German pipers 40 odd years ago. I know it's not copyright free but I couldn't resist posting. The bagpipe sound is built into my Roland Accordion.

This is gorgeous, Graham - as Scott said, the tone of your accordion is perfect. Loved how lush and emotive it is. Makes me close my eyes and imagine myself at the Highlands..thanks for sharing smile

Thanks Deryk, you have to work at the settings in the Roland accordions to get them just right, but it's well worth it

Fantastic but when oh when are BIAB/REALTRACKS going to include Bagpipes or uillean Pipes in their instruments especially useful when creating Celtic songs but they of course have been used in orchestral and pop pieces of music over the years and it is probably one of the most important instruments in Irish music (uillean pipes that is)
Cmon PG Music I am sure you have been asked this many times before. I am sure that many more musicians would use your great program with this addition

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

It's nice that some one pulled this out of 2020 as it's been an age since Graham has posted one of his lovely recordings.


Cheers

I just wish that they would add Bagpipes/Uillean Pipes/Arabian Pipes to the list of available Real Instruments
There are just thousands of us who are missing out in the folk world. Almost every celtic musician that I provide tracks for ask me for Uillean Pipes. Whilst the Accordion/Bodhran/Mandolin/Guitar/Fiddle sound great there is still that one sound that is missing
PLEASE give us this small group of sounds

My favorite accordion player strikes again

You certainly know how to play that thing!

Absolutely beautiful

Super backing tracks and mix


OK, a random thought;
Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?
