Talk:List of bagpipes

Comment

Istria is an ethnically and culturally mixed region, so it seems likely that any local bagpipe would be shared between cultures. A bit of poking about uncovers this picture in which jpeg compression has destroyed any detail of the chanter. In fairness, it doesn't look as described in the article.

• It is, although Istarski mih (detailed picture of the chanter at the article) is similar to other mihs along the dalmatian coast, so it is mainly a croatian instrument. It is also played in Kvarner, which was not under such Italian/ Slovenian cultural influence -- Hand of Bjesomar 21:31, 11 March 2006

Merge of Spanish bagpipes

Spanish bagpipes appears to have been cloned from the Iberia section of this article. It would be better to bring it back into the fold.--Yendor1958 10:11, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

What's in the Spanish bagpipes article now is mostly about the types of bagpipes, and probably should come back. The intro to the article, however, mentions different piping styles. Before we decide to merge the article away, is it possible that aspect could be expanded?Lisamh 18:32, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment: The individual sections of Types of bagpipes should not be huge, as some are getting. The richly detailed text should be in individual articles on Spanish bagpipes, Italian bagpipes, etc. Badagnani 19:42, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

General cleanup

This list is awesome, but needs a little cleaning up. I went through the various Eastern pipes (SW Asia, Caucuses, Africa) and formed new articles, pasted in details, got original spellings in original alphabets, etc. If some folks could "adopt" the Italy, Poland, and Iberia sections and tighten them up, that'd be awesome. Though it's a tiny thing, it'd be awesome if someone could find the right lettering for the Cretan pipe in the Greek alphabet. Anyone have a Flickr account and want to write the Cretan guy who owns the linked pic? MatthewVanitas (talk) 22:00, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Italian

The southern Italian/Sicilian ciaramella and ciaramedda should be added. Badagnani (talk) 23:56, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

German Bagpipes

The section is not correct. First, "Dudelsack" is besides "Sackpfeife" the german term for any kind of bagpipes. "Schäferpfeife" is a more specific term. It means a special kind of bagpipes which is described right in the following text. Perhaps it should be added that normally the chanter has a double reed and the drones single reeds. German wiki page Schäferpfeife

And I wouldn't say the "Mittelaltersackpfeife" is a reconstruction of old drawings, at least not most times, more often the design is inspired by these drawings.

But I would leave changes to native speakers. Greets, a german piper --I.N.I.LIVE (talk) 13:43, 25 January 2009 (UTC) Doesn't anybody want to change it? I think my English is too bad for that... --I.N.I.LIVE (talk) 19:26, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Not to be unhelpul, but as an English-speaker unfamiliar with German and German music, I'd be afraid of making some huge mistake trying to categorize/label Deutsch pipes. MatthewVanitas (talk) 19:34, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Iberian gaitas

The current section lists out a ton of different pipes all called "gaita." Might it make more sense to just have that section say that "gaita" refers to a ton of variant Iberian pipes, and then link in a new article Gaita (bagpipe)? That way we'd have a new article with room to detail all the minor variations on the gaita concept in Iberia, rather than list 15 different variants in the main article.

What is a Mišnice exactly? Not on the list

There's an article for it, but it's not on the list. Article is also somewhat confusing as it seems to apply the same instrument is found (by the same name???) in Eastern Europe and North Africa. Anyone got any insight into how to fix that article? It's kind of confusing as it stands. MatthewVanitas (talk) 17:16, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

I believe it's a rare bagpipe. Badagnani (talk) 20:10, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Kalmyk bagpipe büshkür ???

I ran across a mention of the Kalmyk "bagpipe", but I can't find further substantiation to ensure that it genuinely is a bagpipe:

Among them should be mentioned stringed instruments: the dombra, psaltery (jatha), tovshur and mörin hur, which was called the steppe violoncello. Representing wind instruments were bagpipes (büshkür). - Ė.-B. Guchinova (2006). The Kalmyks. Taylor & Francis. pp. 157–. ISBN 978-0-7007-0657-0. Retrieved 6 July 2013.

Galician bagpipe

In Spain are listed a lot of different bagpipes, all of them with the same protagonism, but everybody recognizes bagpipes as Galician and Asturian instrument, that it should be outstanded. Nachonion (talk) 16:48, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
