Bagpipe* Settings for Traditional Irish Session Music
*(aka Irish War Pipes or the Great Highland Bagpipes
and the Scottish Small Pipes)
BACK TO THE TOP

These tunes are a compilation of traditional Irish tunes popular in Irish sessions throughout America. I have heard these tunes in several session groups and have long wished to be able to play the same tunes on my pipes (i.e. the Great Highland Bagipies, GHB) the Píb Mhór or big pipes.

I was also greatly influenced by the recordings of such Irish groups as The Chieftains, Boys of the Lough, Planxty, The Bothy Band, Oisin, Aengus, and General Humbert. and many of my favorite Scottish groups such as The Whistlebinkies, Battlefield Band, Silly Wizard, Tannahill Weavers, and Ossian also played many traditional Irish tunes.

Over the past fifteen to twenty years many of the grade I Pipe Bands (in particular, the Canadian 78th Fraser Highlanders Pipe Band, Simon Fraser University Pipe Band and the Irish Field Marshal Montgomery Pipe Band) put traditional Irish tunes in their competition medleys.

So I knew it was possible to play these tunes on the big pipes but it is very difficult to find Irish music for the big pipes in America. I only recently found the following books (on the Internet) even though they have been published for over ten years. Traditional Irish Music for the Bagpipe by David Rickard formerly of the Fintan Lalor Pipeband of Dublin but now a member of the St. Lawrence O'Toole Pipeband of Dublin, and Irish Tunes Old & New by Pipe Major Terry Tully of the St. Lawrence O'Toole Pipe Band, Dublin. He has two more books called Terry Tully Collection of Traditional Irish Music and Terry Tully Collection of Traditional and Contemporary Irish Music. If you want to know where to get the books mentioned, search the Internet under their names or contact me and I'll send you some links to stores selling their books.

Robert Wallace of the above mentioned Wistlebinkies, who is credited with the revival of the Scottish Highland Small Pipes also published a book entitled The Glasgow Collection of Bagpipe Music, which has many of his settings for Irish tunes played by him on the Scottish pipes with the Whistlebinkies.

I also highly recommend the Highland Bagpipe music book The Moidart Collection or A Cheud Ceud by Allan MacDonald the brother of Iain MacDonald former piper with both Ossian and the Battlefield Band mentioned above. It has many Irish tunes in it!

I believe it is good to have many different settings to choose from as there are for traditional Scottish pipe tunes. My settings and many of my tunes are different than what you will find in the above mentioned books.

I used the program Bagpipe Music Writer, also known as BMW by Robert MacNeil to put these tunes on staff notation.

If anyone can help me with the Irish Gaelic for these tune names I would greatly appreciate it.

I have changed my focus from just being able to play my favorite Irish tunes on the GHB to playing them on Scottish Smallpipes in traditional Irish seesions.

I found that not all of my arrangements were suitable for session playing. So I have made different arrangements. Of course you can play any setting on any type of pipes.

For example I play three different versions/arrangements/settings of the polka John Ryan's. One for the Smallpipes in the key of "A" and the Border Pipes, another for the Smallpipes in the key of "D", and a third version that I perfer playing on GHB that changes keys and therefore not appreciated by most session players. Though they play more versatile imstruments they don't want to adapt tunes to the limitations of the Scottish pipes. This limits which tunes you can play on the Scottish pipes in a traditional Irish session.

I will eventually identify the tunes listed below as to which will work for session playing.

I now have the following different types of pipes.

ASSP = Scottish Smallpipes in the key of "A" The B above the pipe scale is usually a High G and the F# below the pipe scale is uaually a Low A. Measures are often an octave above or below what the other musicians are playing.(For example the tune Up and Down Again above would work in a session played on the Smallpipes in the key of "A" or the Border Pipes. Humours of Whiskey might also work on these pipes depending on the session.

DSSP = Scottish Smallpipes in the key of "D" Parts are often an octave above or below what the other musicians are playing. (For example the tunes Humours of Whiskey and Paddy Be Easy above would work in a session played on the Smallpipes in the key of "D".

LBP = Lowland or Border Pipes allow for chromatic fingerings, which might also work on your GHB chanter! Tunes have F and/or C naturals, and/or G sharps.

GHB = Great Highland Bagpipes Tunes usually have key changes that are not traditional. Session players usually won't like this version. (For example the tunes Fig For A Kiss, Hardiman the Fiddler, above would not work in a session played on the Smallpipes or the Border Pipes.
