Back from the Northumbrian Minstrelsy gig at The Sage, 'Whittaker' went online to see if Chris Ormston's virtuosic 'I saw my love come passing by' was anywhere to be found. Of course it was! Take a listen - Chris's Northumbrian smallpipe playing is phenomenal. Here ...
And here's more - Chris playing music from the Clough Manuscripts (Soundcloud)
As I said, don't imagine pipes are solely in the hands of the Scots! And - on that note - here's Bibliolore's latest blogpost on The Sultan's Bagpipes. Good timing, Bibliolore!
Now to play those smallpipes tracks one more time ... good thing 'Whittaker' isn't in the library today, isn't it?!
