Piobaireachd Society Collection Vol. 9
Although the Piobaireachd Society books have now been re-printed in A4 Size, we still have some of the older, larger format books left in stock. Compiled by the Piobaireachd Society from collected early manuscripts, and using the knowledge of experts and players of the day, these books present the tunes in staff notation accompanied by editorial notes outlining differences among the various sources and noting differences or changes made in the settings by some of the great players of the past. Tunes are often accompanied by the canntaireachd. (A vocable method of recording or transmitting tunes before they were set into staff notation.) These books are absolutely essential for any scholar or aficionado of piping’s ultimate art form.
