Northumbrian Pipes & Concertina?

Does anyone here have any links to Northumbrian Pipes & Concertina being played together on YouTube?

 

Links to sound files of that combination, would also be very useful?

Kitty Hayes and Peter Laban if you don't mind the uillian pipes. There are a number of them on YouTube. A great testiment to her life and Peter's partnership with her. I chose this one because I love her rendition of the Abbey Reel.

 

You might try Alistair Anderson on Youtube for the Northumbrian pipes. I might be mistaken but I've hear a BBC broadcast of Alistair with a soprano and if memory serves there was a northumbrian piper as well.

Aye Mark, those Kitty Hayes and Peter Laban YouTubes are a delight.

 

However, it's actually the Northumbrian pipes I am interested in hearing, along with the E. C.

Well I've been looking for him, but so far, no luck. :(

I believe that Andy May (Northumbrian pipes) and Rob Say (Pipes and concertina) have a CD in preparation. I know they did some recording this Spring, but I don't know how near they are to releasing it. I'll ask next time I see either of them.

Excellent & yes Theo, please ask them ... Ta.

 

You can tell them I'll certainly buy ONE copy! ;)

These two played with Jody at Witby last year 2007.

Think there's something on Jody's site.

 

Edited to add : There's a click possibility on their page to listen to them playing together.

Tell them to save one for me too.

 

Sorry to say that all the duets on this recording feature two sets of pipes.

I agree that many pipers only play on their own, or with other pipers and who stick with the old pitch, but some pipers are now quite socialised and have chanters in concert F or in G. There are several such who play in sessions round here. I don't think Jez Lowe would have taken on Andy May if Andy had insisted in playing in F blunt.

Well Sam, who plays with us, has a set of F Pipes & two friends who visited us during the summer, also had F sets of N Pipes, so I guess they are becoming more common.

Hi Theo,

I stumbled on this old comment today & wondered if Andy & Rob ever did release a Northumbrian Pipes & Concertina CD?

 

Cheers,
