The High Level Ranters were based on the mix of fiddle and pipes that I
had discovered with Forster Charlton in the lat 1950's.

Subject: [NSP] NSP duet with other instruments
I've been listening to a lot of UP flat set and fiddle duets, and
playing my SSP in A a bit with a fiddler. I'm smitten with the sound
mix of low pipe and fiddle. I think fiddle and NSP would go well
together, but perhaps the NSP in D would produce a better match up
with a fiddle than F or F# and the G chanter which can be, to my ear
anyway, shrill. Has anyone experimented with this sort of thing at
all?
thanks,
John
PS Is there a monument at the Morpeth Chantry to those who have fallen
in the bagpipe wars?
