Wow!
And quite apart from an illustration of an interesting bag position,
(which is where we came in), & even more interesting bellows with
angled attitude, I'm impressed by his using the lower 4th finger as the
accompaniment on the harmony half of the double chanter while the rest
of the same hand works with his left hand to produce the tune.
Now there's a challenge to all you makers - double chanter nsp's? - not
just musettes with extra notes on second chanter, but actual double
chanter....
(Hastily takes cover.)
