Reminds me of the epic gulf between Seumas Macneill and Gordon Duncan.
For Adrian, "Other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?" (and I am
a great admirer of what I can see of your playing)
I enjoyed Emily's playing, although it far eclipses my ability for any
forseeable future, but does provide one more goal to try for. Similarly
catching up in any small way with your playing is a laudable goal.

I know Inky is defending the one true faith and all that, which I
respect, but when one falls back onto technique as the ultimate while
seeming to not hear amazing technique (even if one doesn't agree
philosophically with all of it) one's argument is made to appear as a
leaky boat upon choppy waters. As for choytes and slides, the comments
look like the kind of axe fall I've seen on many a judging sheet in
Highland piping competions: I'd hate to see Northumbrian
Smallpipe-playing go in that direction.
Stiletto heels! ;-)

The
player slides into notes too. Staccato rules!
