Bellows Scottish Smallpipes by Fred Morrison - Celtic Engraving & Drone Switch Bellows Scottish Smallpipe by Fred Morrison sound terrific, look beautiful, and come with an abundance of deluxe features: a cane chanter reed, specialty Ezeedrone drone reeds, a Blackwood chanter, and premium bellows. The pipes are ornamented with engraved nickel and Mopani drone accents. There are 3 drones--a bass, a baritone, and a tenor--all coming from a single stock. The adapter that connects the pipes and the bellows is sturdy and thoughtfully designed. The top-quality bellows are comfortable and efficient. This model also includes a switch to turn the drones off for performance on the chanter alone and to bring the drones in cleanly. The switch is also helpful if you're accustomed to playing a mouthblown instrument, allowing you a chance to work with the chanter before bringing all of the drones into the system. Developed with Fred Morrison. Made by McCallum Bagpipes in Scotland.

About the Author

About the Author

Katia de Peyer’s first book Dancing with MySelf, Sensuous Exercises for Body, Mind and Spirit (Nucleus Publications, 1991; La Source Press, 2026) introduced her method of inner-centering through movement, hailed by Diane von Furstenberg as a whole new attitude about exercising. Her second book Enjoy Your Healing Power (La Source Press, 2025) is an intuitive, helpful guide for developing our healing power.  A ballet dancer born in Paris who lived in Spain to further her studies in flamenco, Katia moved to New York in the late sixties to start a successful career as a personal trainer. There she met the virtuoso clarinettist Gervase de Peyer in 1976.  She and Gervase married in 1980 and lived for two decades in the US and then in the UK until Gervase’s death in 2017.  Katia continues her work as a writer and healer in London and New York.
