The UILLEANN PIPES–where do they come from?

Ireland’s unique, incredible, majestic and elusive bagpipe: Where did it come from, where is it now, and how do you actually play the thing? As a long time uilleann pipes aficionado, I’m happy to demonstrate how the instrument is put together, all the different components, and how it eventually evolved to this stage. With some important makers, performers and pointers along the way! 🫙Tip Jar: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted... 👕Uilleann Pipes T-shirts, merch & prints: https://uilleannpipesprints.etsy.com 💿My Bandcamp: https://pipingrouse.bandcamp.com 🎵Cathal Brown Pastoral Pipes video:    • "Gahagan's Frisk" and "The Humours of West...   ♌️Leo Rowsome Documentary:    • Leo Rowsome documentary   🏛️NPU Unesco Video:    • Uilleann piping   ➡️Want to buy a set of Uilleann Pipes?:    • Top Ten Tips for Buying Uilleann Pipes   3D Printed Uilleann Pipes: 00:00 - Intro 00:44 - Components 02:32 - The Chanter 04:19 - Drones & Regulators 05:54 - Sound Demonstration 09:31 - The History of the Uilleann Pipes 11:20 - The Golden Age of Union Piping 12:50 - Post-famine Pipes 15:20 - Early 20th Century Piping 16:30 - NPU & the Folk Revival 17:30 - The Nineties and Contemporary Piping 19:20 - Conclusion
