Seattle, Washington, United States – September 6, 2024 —

Bagpipe Entertainment, under the guidance of Cathedral Piper Tyrone Heade, is proud to showcase the distinctive allure of Scottish Small Pipes. These unique instruments, with their warm woodwind timbre, offer a refined alternative to the traditional Highland Bagpipes, making them an ideal choice for intimate indoor performances of Highland music.

Scottish Small Pipes, a historically significant chamber instrument, have been captivating audiences since their origin in the early 1700s. Unlike the louder and more familiar Highland Bagpipes, the Small Pipes produce a gentler, more conversational tone that is perfectly suited for ensemble settings. Bagpipe musicians, particularly those seeking a nuanced sound for indoor performances, will find the Scottish Small Pipes to be an exceptional choice.

Tyrone Heade, a seasoned performer and instructor, has long been an advocate for the Scottish Small Pipes. He shares, “The Scottish Small Pipes offer a unique voice within the world of bagpipe music. Their ability to blend seamlessly with other instruments while maintaining their own distinctive sound makes them truly special. It is a privilege to bring this remarkable instrument to new audiences and to highlight its versatility and charm.”

The Scottish Small Pipes are known for their tonal qualities, described as a blend between a clarinet and a fiddle. With a volume comparable to that of a clarinet, they provide a softer, more melodious sound that harmonizes beautifully with other instruments. This makes them particularly well-suited for collaborative performances, where their gentle presence enhances the overall musical experience.

Critiques of Tyrone Heade’s performances with the Scottish Small Pipes have consistently praised the instrument’s tone and musicality. A 2011 critique by a native Scottish juror highlighted the “lovely sound” and “musically played” nature of the instrument, noting its “pleasant to listen to” quality. Similarly, in a 2017 review, Canadian and Scottish jurors commended the Small Pipes’ “beautiful tone,” “solid tuning,” and the rich chords produced by the drones. These reviews underscore the instrument’s ability to captivate and engage audiences, even in the most discerning musical circles.
