What is a "bagpipe"?
A bagpipe is a wind instrument consisting of a set of pipes that are played by blowing air into a bag made of animal skin or synthetic material. The player fills the bag with air and uses a set of pipes, including a melody pipe and one or more additional pipes that produce a constant background sound, to create music. The air is pushed through these pipes to produce a distinctive, continuous tone. Bagpipes are used in various musical traditions, including Scottish, Irish, and Balkan music, and are known for their powerful and unique sound.
