| Hi, I found your reference to Norden Folk's Domian, Eriksson dimensions of D / G chanter. I want to ask to what I have to tune reed tone. I did D / G chanter, but I do not know how to make a reed. Thank you. |

To make a reed isn not that simple, but if you find Olle Gällmos web page, you will find a good instruction.
But I guess that you would really get good help from a experienced piper to get it right. It is not easy.

| I very much doubt it, for two reasons: 1. Thure Gudmundsson who plays the pipes on the only recording there was, was not a "traditional" piper but as much of a revivalist as Per was and isolated one, at that. 2. The self-constructed instrument Thure plays did not work well, so I don't think any "playing style" can be extracted from it. In fact, the tunes he plays are almost unrecognizable. Imagine being in Thures situation - trying to reconstruct the instrument (and its reeds) all by himself, and then make a recording for Swedish National Radio on your first prototype ... |
