Medieval Italian dances on pipe & tabor

- I am playing the "Danca Amorosa & Troto" and a well-known "Salterello." These dances are from two different manuscript sources, both dated to late 14th century Italy.
I have rigged my tabor pipe to have a drone note, which jumps around harmonically as I play. On the little finger of my right hand, I have a shaker, adding to the tabor drumming. Altogether, I think it makes some jolly good noise.
If you enjoyed this, there are some other videos of me playing various other medieval and renaissance instruments and tunes, on my CZcams channel.

awesome jam
Очень классно
What type of flute/pipe is that? Sounds great.
Thank you! I'm playing a three-hole tabor pipe, and I've rigged up an additional pipe to act as a drone. It's lots of fun.
@@stefanmarkos I know it is a Tabor pipe but by what maker? And you put them together yourself? I've found double tabor pipes from Susato but they combine a tin whistle with a tabor pipe. The reason I am asking -- I wanna learn to play tabor and pipe but there is not many makers out there. I ordered a Generation D but I am afraid it might be very shrill. So I will probably also get a Susato in A. The ones you are playing look a bot like the Susato "Taboriole" (I also notice the thumb-rest which is typical for Suato). Is it in A or even G?
@@MrSeedi76 Ah, yes. This is the Susato 'taboriole' product, and I connected the tabor pipe bodies to the "Dolce-Duo" double-fipple mouthpiece they make, which is marketed with pennywhistle bodies in mind, but I find it works nicely with the tabor pipes. Since you can order individual components, you can get these items 'a la carte,' as it were.
In this video, I have two G pipes connected to a 'dolce-duo' mouthpiece. I'm playing one, while the other is tooting a C or occasionally overblowing to a G (both open-hole notes). Sometimes, to get minor key dones, I'll pair (for example) a G with an F, and use the thumbrest to close the F thumbhole to get an A drone against the G pipe.
The Generation D is a pretty shrill pipe. Good for outdoor Morris Dancing, but a little much for indoor playing. There's a fellow who modifies these pipes for softer playing, and with some internet research, you could probably do such adjustments yourself. Have fun!
@@stefanmarkos thank you very much for the detailed answer. I think you probably mean Jerry Freeman who makes a tweaked generation tabor pipe. I will probably get a taboriole in the future. I also plan on trying to make my own tabor pipe as I already made quite a few tin whistles out of PVC plumbing pipes. I'll give it a try.
Got books?
It's a secret doorway made up to look like a messy bookshelf. It leads to the library where I keep the REAL books, which are all neat and tidy.
