In the first paragraph are the origins of the bagpipe described. It evolved out of mouth-blown reed-pipes in the Near East. One of the first are the Silver Pipes of Ur. In the Roman Empire, these pipes savoured an immense popularity and had been used for several ceremonies and events. With time, firstly the bag appeared, thereupon a drone. Since the bagpipes existed in the whole Europe, they evolved dissimilarly in different countries (like the languages did as well). Some of these different bagpipe forms are mentioned in the paper as well. In the main part are a few different possibilities of using the bagpipe presented. Some bands use them as an important, but not the dominant instrument whereas they are foremost in others. This depends on the band's thought what they want to express with the pipe. Some use them as a leading instrument and to create powerful songs with unusual instruments whilst others use the bagpipe just because it is a pipe. On the other hand, there are also bands which simply use the bagpipe as an ornament for their songs. There also are three most famous pipers presented. The Scottish one reinvent old traditional music, the German one was the first Continental who successfully completed a Bachelor degree programme in piping and the Spanish mixes fantastically traditional Galician music and its Celtic influences with his own compositions.

The Highland bagpipe, widely considered 'Scotland's national instrument', is one of the most recognized icons of traditional music in the world. It is also among the least understood. But Scottish bagpipe music and tradition - particularly, but not exclusively, the Highland bagpipe - has enjoyed an unprecedented surge in public visibility and scholarly attention since the 1990s. A greater interest in the emic led to a diverse picture of the meaning and musical iconicism of the bagpipe in communities in Scotland and throughout the Scottish diaspora. This interest has led to the consideration of both the globalization of Highland piping and piping as rooted in local culture. It has given rise to a reappraisal of sources which have hitherto formed the backbone of long-standing historical and performative assumptions. And revivalist research which reassesses Highland piping's cultural position relative to other Scottish piping traditions, such as that of the Lowlands and Borders, today effectively challenges the notion of the Highland bagpipe as Scotland's 'national' instrument. The Highland Bagpipe provides an unprecedented insight into the current state of Scottish piping studies. The contributors – from Scotland, England, Canada and the United States – discuss the bagpipe in oral and written history, anthropology, ethnography, musicology, material culture and modal aesthetics. The book will appeal to ethnomusicologists, anthropologists, as well as those interested in international bagpipe studies and traditions.

Music of the Great Highland Bagpipe By: Michael E. Akard The music of the Scottish Highland bagpipe has gone through many changes over the years. Classical bagpipe music, which is known as “piobaireachd,” has been played for centuries, but the sound of this music as performed today is very different from how it sounded in the past. In Music of the Great Highland Bagpipe, Michael E. Akard traces the history of piobaireachd from its earliest performances up to the present day. Composed of carefully researched material and presented in an easy to read style, any reader can learn about the major historical, political, social, and technological changes that have influenced, and continue to influence, pipers and pipe music.
