What is the difference between the Irish Scottish and Northumberland bagpipes?
The Northumbrian bagpipes are bellows driven and the Irish Uilleann pipes are also bellows drive as are the reinvented Scottish Lowland pipes (based on the Northumbrian pipe design but with the highland chanter). The "Scottish" bagpipes by which I presume you mean the Great Highland Bagpipes are powered via the mouth (the lungs). The Irish War pipes in modern terms is identical to the Scottish Great Highland bagpipe after attempts such as the Brian Boru version with different drones has fallen out of favour. In addition to the method of inflating the bag they differ in the drones, the keys and notes as well as whether they produce a continuous sound (GHB) or a more staccato sound (Northumbrian), the Uilleann can do both:- GHB - Open Chanter - Only 9 notes plus blowpipe and two tenor and one bass drones - continuous tune. Northumbrian - Closed Chanter 2 full octaves, 4 drones, metal keys from 7-17 Uilleann - Open chanter (can be blocked manually) 2 full octaves, 3 drones - Bass, Baritone, Tenor and 3 regulators with keys - Bass, Baritone, Tenor. Can be played as a "half set" without the regulators.
