I have not heard the recording, but I personally see nothing wrong with
making nice music on pipes even if, in doing so, you do not display the
essentials of good piping.

Thanks, John, for pointing out the essentials of good piping, and their
absence in the recording. I wonder if your critics would have responded in
the same way if it was, say, Ryofu on the recording. Not sure how often NSP
appear in the gutter press either!

I listened to the clip. Nice music, but not what I would call good piping.
The open fingered trills grate a bit, and the staccato was damn near
nonexistent!
Whom am I slagging off?
Oh, it's Ms Tickle
