Currently listening to … Mixolydian, Paul Saul

Mark Saul’s CD “Mixolydian” arrived a couple of days ago, and I’m on my 6th run through it. I mentioned this CD a week or so ago after I had heard a track being played on BBC Radio Scotland’s Celtic Connections.

“Holy Bagpipes”, Batman!

I am so impressed by the fact that every track has something to offer me. This is, most certainly, an wonderful example of a collection of high-energy, contemporary bagpipe compositions.

The take-home message is that the bagpipe is an instrument for playing music, not an instrument for playing bagpipe music.
