IT l
FOUND IN THE ANCIENT REED
OR SHEPHERDS PIPE
lu Early Tim en There Were Many
Different Kinds of Ilnspipcn In Uhc
In Europe The Highland Lonlniid
find Irish Varieties
According to the encyclopedia the bag
pipe Is a wind Instrument the fixed char
acteristic of which has always been
two or more reed pipes attached to and
sounded by a wind chest or bag which
bag lias in turn been supplied either by
the lungs of the performer or by a bel
lows The original instrument was pre
sumably the simple reed or shepherds
pipe whicli was Avell known to the
Trojans Egyptians Greeks and Ro
mans But the strain of blowing these
ancient pipes was so great that some
genius conceived the Idea of having a
reserve supply of wind In a bag attach
ed to the pipes and hence the bagpipe
The first real instrument Is believed to
have been a skin of a goat or kid with
two pipes through one of which the
bag was inflated the other emitting the
sound
In early times the bagpipe was com
mon in Great Britain and abroad At
one time there were five different kinds
known on the continent some inflated
by the mouth and others by bellows
while in the British isles three kinds
were known the great highland bag
pipe the lowland bagpipe of Scotland
which closely resembled the
a sharp brian and the Irish bagpipe

with reeds but of different kinds The
drones are tuned by means of sliders

time before he begins the tune proper
is heard with impatience by those not
accustomed to the instrument Indeed
it gave rise to the saying applied in
Scotland to those who waste time over
small matters You are longer in tun

tune

land having the same tone but less
j sonorous It was to the strains of such
I a bagpipe that Chaucer tells us the corn-
pany of pilgrims left London and it is
the same instrument that is alluded to
in Shakespeare as the Lincolnshire bag
pipe
The Irish bagpipe is the instrument in
its most elaborate form and is supplied
with wind by a bellows The drones
are all fixed on one stock and have
keys which are played by the wrist of
the right hand The reeds are soft and
the tones very sweet and melodious
and there is a harmonious bass which
is very effective in the hands of a good
player The Irish instrument is fast
dying out
The bagpipe though at one time fair
ly common never obtained a firm hold
in England It lost favor and gradual
ly deteriorated until it is now practi
cally extinct The average English
man neither appreciates nor under
stands it A famous poet irreverently
once compared its notes to the shrill
screech of a lame goose caught in
corn wLile another heretic writer lik
ens its sound to a horrible noisy mad
Irishman or to the cries of the eter
nally tormented To the Irish people
it appeals more strongly They still
possess in a degree the feeling of at
tachment to the bagpipe which is so
general among Scotsmen sut it is
undoubtedly more closely associated
with Scotland both in the highlands
and lowlands than with any other
country the particular instrument in
use being the great highland bagpipe
which as already explained consists
of three drones including the big
drone which was added about the be
ginning of the last century It is this
type which has gradually superseded
the lowland pipe There is no doubt
that the bagpipe was in use In Scot
land from a very early period and it
is in Scotland that it has been brought
to the highest degree of perfection Its
music distinctly connects it with Scot
land as is clear in the pibroch the
strathspey the reel the march and
other popular melodies There are
proofs that the instrument was culti
vated in Scotland certainly in the
twelfth century and of its universal
popularity as early as the fifteenth cen
tury while in the seventeenth century
nearly every town in the highlands and
lowlands boasted of its piper London
