David Daye's channel mainly featuring Irish uilleann pipe and some Scottish bagpipe information, helpful tips, and other information related to my 1997 "Penny-Chanter" invention which is a new way to build the melody pipe ("chanter") for the uilleann pipes using telescoped straight brass tubing creating a stepped tapered bore.
Excerpt Tight Piping Style Slow Motion Paddy Moloney
A short Copyright Fair Use educational excerpt from The Chieftains 6 album "Bonaparte's Retreat" of the late piper Paddy Moloney playing the 9/8 time slip-jig "Top It Off" slowed down to 1/2 speed and an octave lower in pitch for the benefit of Irish uilleann pipe players and learners.
This is amazing playing and skill discipline. Let those who have ears to hear, hear.

Daye "Classic" Uilleann Chanter
zhlédnutí 2,7KPřed 6 lety
This is a traditionally-reamed concert D uilleann pipe chanter based on an older chanter in the Rowsome family, from measurements by Kevin Rowsome using probes supplied by Craig Fischer. I don't know how many were originally made, but a few have been heard by the general public. The originals are short and were adapted to the modern pitch by using an oversized reed such as one played by Liam O'...
Fix Sinking Back D
zhlédnutí 3,2KPřed 7 lety
Uilleann pipe chanter reeds can develop a "sinking" or unsteady back D (thumb note) if scraped too thin. When pressure increases, the thumb note goes flat instead of remaining steady. One cure is to take the reed apart, and reinforce the cane by applying some superglue to the inside surface above the staple. This method should help with a double-reed for any instrument, possibly also single ree...

Uilleann Chanter Reed Final Scraping

Final thinning of the uilleann chanter reed blades, concentrating on the upper end near the lips. Starting condition: slight excess strength, pitch a little too sharp, back D (thumb note) sharp, and bottom D prone to gurgling. If reed is already in playing use, use only fine sandpaper and only a very few strokes each time, testing constantly especially back D. If sanded too much, back D becomes...
Hollow Mainstock Upgrade - Uilleann Pipes

NEVER ALTER A HISTORIC INSTRUMENT! The video shows a cheap Pakistani concert D mainstock, which has individual sockets for each drone reed. I drill them out to make 1 large common air chamber behind the 3 mounting sockets. This is the original uilleann mainstock construction from the 1700's - 1800's. The common chamber helps the 3 drones hold pitch together better as the bag pressure is changed...

Partial Pre-Scraping of Uilleann Reed for Brighter Tone

Very helpful minimizing dull tone from warping. For uilleann chanter or other dry blown double reeds using French bassoon or other hard cane that resists settling down to an ideal low elevation (opening). Before assembling and binding the reed, scrape away the bark from a narrow strip along the centerline of the blades. But do NOT go all the way to the end. Leave all the bark in place across th...
An Ohio Evening Thunderstorm

Good stereo sound, use headphones or speakers. An average summer thunderstorm in northeastern Ohio, with regular lightning and thunder, modest winds. Our nervous Cairn terrier Lotta is heard at times. Shot with our new Canon SX170-is camera, the sound and picture unaltered except for a few seconds beginning and end. Sound briefly quieted when zooming; I didn't know this at the time.

Loved this. Real drums too, unlike the bairns rattles the bands play with now. Many thanks
Wooowwww❤
Listening to this beautiful song, on March 30, 2024, exactly 22 years after the death of the Queen Mother, Elizabeth Bowes-Lyons.
Yes, so you probably know that a slightly altered version of this was played for her funeral procession, a perfect adaptation of the feel of this original with the conventions of the pace of modern military procession. I play pipes because of Scots neighbors many years ago from her times, and the Scottish music they shared with our family when I was a young child. An outstanding CZcams of the QM procession pipes, recorded at street level, is found at czcams.com/video/DX05mATrOmQ/video.htmlsi=zrDV1wXnhk1osCAF
@@Dayepipes Interesting! I didn't know that, but I noticed that the song sounded like a mix between "Mist Covered Mountains" and "My Home"
my concern is how not to shave/scrap it too much. I guess this material removal is a non reversible process.
it would be helpful a 2nd part showing how to add glue without disassembling the reed too
If memory serves, this is the album with my favorite interpretation of 'The Black Bear,' that skips along so briskly it seems almost a strathspey. Am I at all right?
Genial😊
Sorry youtube blocked me from viewing
Thanks a lot for this tutorial 😊🤗
Super tutorial than You❤
This is such a beautiful melody and so well captured in this recording. When I hear pipes playing certain tunes like this I feel proud to be Scottish. I like this tune so much I have arranged for solo guitar in a play-along score: czcams.com/video/2Gj1SHPMiJ0/video.htmlsi=zVGhZ82tg1TQ8Uge
Looking forward to it
Lol they killed the Scottish regiments and could not care less for old Scottish soldiers! Still ! With www3 approaching! Sure the yanks will be happy to have the Scots around !
The wood butchers are at it again.
Can I make a mainshock from the Derlin plastic? Would it be sturdy enough?
The photograph was taken at the Duke Of York barracks in Chelsea prior to the Regimental or Battalion sports day. My father was competing and I was there watching. It says 1950, but it was at least a year earlier before the Second Battalion departed for Malaya.
Thank you for this reply. I play the pipes since 1966, I became able to play all the tunes on this recording in my late teen years long ago, but never a player of any importance to the pipe world. Another CZcams poster of tunes from this album says it was made in 1959 and I have no way to be sure, living so far from Scotland and from London.
I don't know the time period of the recording, I was referring to the photograph and the time frame of the two pipe bands playing on the sports grounds together at the Duke of York barracks and the resultant photographs
Wow this is even better than Scotland the brave

Ah but but but thats no a bflat! Or is it? Sounds like an olde standard a the way it used to be. 😂
It's a joy to listen to old bands with a flatter pitch playing classic tunes. A nice break from the modern, rapid fire fingering exercises and tone that is almost too perfect so as to sound a bit artificial, a bit soul-less and mechanical.
Just did my paki stock a few days ago, much much better, also gave a little more space for the bass reed to do it's thing. Thanks David!
Rest easy your Majesty 😞🏴💙🇬🇧
When I listen this music I love humans for possibility to create something like that.
Excellent job, Thank you for posting sir, greatly appreciated 👍 🙏 😊🎵❤
Absolutely unique style he had. Very thought through combination of staccato and legato, open and closed fingerings, off-knee playing and all sorts of embellishments resulting in outstanding musicality. I wonder how did he come up with his way of playing, as there was definitely a lot in it that feels counter-intuitive, not what one's fingers usually play on their own.
His style makes great sense. More than a little of it relates to what his instrument --specifically the melody playing pipe or "chanter" made by Leo Rowsome, and what it was able to do and was unable to do. If you play the instrument, there a sound effect unique to the bottom note of the scale and of this tune which is the note D. It's called the "hard D" and it's the same note, but is made louder by pumping the air pressure a tiny bit higher as an upper finger is incredibly briefly flicked up and down that triggers the response. Almost every piper in history uses this effect except for Paddy Moloney --I've never heard him use it even once in the recordings and appearances since the early 70's. But I make uilleann pipes as my full time profession, and I have been building replicas of aged, distorted chanters from the maker of Moloney's trying to undo the degradation of age. I can say that giving up the "hard D" feature would make his style easier to play. This could be done by any combination of the ravages of time on an instrument, or ways of making and setting up the reed. RIP Paddy, and Leo too for that matter, if I had a choice of winning a billion dollar lottery or spending 1 hour with each of you 2 willing to answer my questions, I'd take the latter.
@@Dayepipes I've also noticed the abscence of hard D, as well as other little things (distinction of vibrato on B1, ability to play vibrato on back D with all four bottom hand fingers without falling to c#, specific tonal quality of sliding from e2 to g2). Interestingly, often time pipemakers and pipers concider ability of the chanter to play hard D to be an advantage and a marker of a good chanter/reed combination. It is so great to finally discuss Moloney's music with someone. People usually tend to overlook his mastery as a piper, seeing him mostly as a showman and band leader.
No idea why the algorithm put this in my recommended but I will do my part to make it go viral because it would be very funny if this completely random video went viral lol
It's the opposite of random for those of us who play, and the profoundly few of us who make, this instrument. I'm sorry some demented computer algorithm inserted it into your life.
Iet me be your 700th like
The Queen has good taste in music!
She dead
My son serves in the Royal Tank Regiment. This tune inspired him to become a piper. He is from Dorset and is currently up in Edinburgh learning to play..
Great to hear that. Good luck to him.
Love the sound of the pipes and drums. Used to be a Scots Guardsman and always felt 10ft tall when marching with the bag pipes.
This moved my soul so beautiful.. RIP Elizabeth 🙏
As much as I’m an Irishman, the Scots Guards can belt out a fine tune.
Listened to the procession on the radio at work, got goosebumps as soon as this started playing.
majestic music
proud to be half Scottish
The most moving lament! It certainly reaches the depths of your soul! Heard it played during the Queen Mother’s funeral procession and, now our late Queen. Apparently it was also incorporated into the funeral procession of King George VI and, Winston Churchill in 1965. Absolutely stirring stuff, guaranteed to tug at the heart strings. 🇬🇧💕💕🇬🇧
Queen Elizabeth brought me here. Beautiful and awe-inspiring piece, May Her Majesty rest in peace. P/S: definitely not Darude sandstorm
This piece hit my heart hard as the gun carriage carried the dead Queen. The massed band was extraordinary.
The moment the pipes and drums started, I just felt a huge wave of goosebumps and emotion. An amazing performance by all involved, they did their/our Queen proud 👏
Was an unbelievable day!! The bagpipes did me also.
Same scene of 1936 George V funeral is on CZcams with the bagpipes
Mass pipes & drums are amazing
Proud to be 🇬🇧
Beautiful sound.
Came here for the Queen, God save the Queen.
Rest in peace Queen Elizabeth II 🖤🇬🇧
This was played as the Queens funeral commenced. And for the first time since her death I was moved to tears.
I’ve cried practically every day due to this tune, Skye Boat Song and The Funeral March 😢😢😢
Yeah I had a lump in my throat also. Very moving
Me too pal, bagpipes are absolutely beautiful and sad at the same time
@@blackjackmaestro6505 They’re haunting, mate. 😞😞😞
What else did the pipe band play for the funeral? It seemed to be a few songs.
Extremely good advice. Great video.
God save the Queen
Sounds amazing sir…Thank you!
What about about flattening the A and B in the second octave, any thoughts would be appreciated.....
