My question is why do have a picture of Scottish Highland Bagpipes on an article about Ireland? The Uillean pipes which are the Irish version of the bagpipes would be more appropriate. The uillean pipes use bellows rather than a blowpipe, are much softer in tone and have a two octave chromatic range, as opposed to Scottish Highland pipes, which use a blowpipe for air, can be heard from miles away, and have a very limited range. Just curious!
