The development of the bagpipe can be traced through the ancient
civilizations of Persia, Greece and Rome to Europe where it has been in
common use since the ninth century.
By the start of the Renaissance bagpipes typically had two drones to
accompany the chanter producing a loud, vibrant sound suitable for dances,
marches and other outdoor occasions. Three drones became more commonplace
towards the end of the period.
Bagpipes can easily be played by themselves, but a popular combination in
the later Middle Ages seems to have been bagpipe and
shawm.
Perhaps as a reaction to these loud bagpipes the Renaissance saw the
emergence of quiet 'indoor' pipes such as the
Hummelchen or Smallpipes that
produced a muted tone entirely suitable for both indoor use and performance
with other instruments.

RWC Bagpipes
Our Bagpipes are available in four versions.
Our rustic bagpipes do not have any drones, being in the true
sense of the word a bag pipe. We use top quality tanned leather for the
stitched bag into which are tied the stocks for the blowpipe and chanter in
g.
Our Medieval bagpipes follow the description of English pipes with
a single drone found in Chaucer's prologue (1386). It has a single drone in
G, the chanter in g and a blowpipe fitted into stocks tied into a quality
tanned leather stitched by.
Our Renaissance Bagpipes is based in the treatise Syntagma Musicum
by Praetorius where clearly shows a set of bagpipes with two drones in
several sections with the chanter flared suggesting a conical bore. It has
two drones, one in 3 sections (d) and one in 4 sections (G), a conical bored
chanter (g') and a blowpipe.
Our Smallpipes are based on the Hummelchen in Praetorius'
Syntagma Musicum which shows a mouth blown set of small pipes with a small
parallel bored chanter and two drones. We have scaled the chanter to the key
of d' and the two drones to d & G. The three plastic reeds for both the
chanter and the drones are set to operate on a light bag pressure making our
smallpipes easy to play and particularly suitable for the first time player.
Each instrument is hand built to special order by
in house craftsmen in our own workshops in Toledo
(Spain) and comes with 12 months warranty.
A soft padded bag or fitted hard case are available
as optional extras if required. |

The Renaissance, Medieval and Rustic Bagpipes kits contain
everything you need to build a set of bagpipes. English sycamore turned,
bored and reamed for the stocks, drones and chanter. Top quality tanned
leather, yellow hemp thread, cobblers wax, awl, needle and handle are

traditional bag dressing. Cane reeds (with the option of plastic) give the
finished instrument a full sound.
The Smallpipes - Hummelchen in D kit includes everything you need
to build your own smallpipes ready for assembly in this our most popular
bagpipe kit. Most of the work is straightforward stitching of the leather
and tying in of the turned wooden stocks. The hardwood chanter has a
parallel bore and the two drones are made up from sections to play d and G.
Drilling the fingerholes in the chanter is a simple process using the
template and drills provided. |
