Line 98:
For folks learning to Great Highland Bagpipe ... begin to explore listening to tunes in all 4 College of Piping Tutors, especially the four Piobaireachds in the final, yellow, Vol. 4 Tutor, one good version of which only, played by PM Gavin Stoddart, - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mrSdRPVY0A - is posted here on this WUaS Bagpipe Tutorials' page, as well as on the new Piobaireachd page - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Pibroch,_Piobaireachd_or_Ceòl_Mór - presently.

The pitch and scale of Great Highland Bagpipe seems to be sharper than B flat in Mixolydian mode? This seems to be the correct pitch and scale, with the staff notation best written with 2 sharps - "but our music could be written with a D key-signature (containing C# & F#) to avoid confusing non-pipers" ((Ewan Macpherson, 1998 - http://publish.uwo.ca/~emacphe3/pipes/acoustics/pipescale.html).
