I've finally done it. Since I'm lacking inspiration for things to write, I went ahead and videoed myself playing the bagpipes...rather vain, in my opinion. But oh well. Since this is the first video that I've uploaded, I'm not quite sure I have all the strings tied on how to do it, so forgive the mishaps.
And on that note...
I do know that the drones are not in unison. This does not help with the effect of the bagpipes. I need to learn how to tune them accurately. It's quite a chore, believe me!
In regards to the challenge issued, the first part has been published! I will be posting a second part on Monday the 10th. Just a hint - Ben and I will be trying to get every single fairy tale possible mentioned throughout this story. Be alert.
Until Monday!
Yay!!! Oh.my.word. That was sooo amazing!!! I'm super happy you recorded yourself playing. Samuel was asking what the bagpipes were - now I can show him. :)
ReplyDeleteSounding good, Josh!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the fairy tale.
That was wonderful!! Now all we need is Scotland in the backround, and the whole kilt thing. ;)
ReplyDeleteGood work Josh!
