It is one of the most beautiful sounds in the world. Sounds like a dream you'd dream if you went to sleep imagining the most beautiful sound that ever existed.

and the best:

I thought the bagpipes was the most difficult instrument to play along with the violin.

Along with all the ecletic things I've learned to do, I actually had a music scholarship in college. What I know about music and the arts that is absolutely certain is, that nothing is difficult if you love it and want to do it. I've never played the bagpipes, but I've played all the wind instruments (I think) and took violin lessons a few years ago. Just like anything else, you learn it, practice it, try hard and are rewarded with success...

Oh, I am working on it!

I cannot for the life of me record myself and have it sound even close to what it actually sounds like; might have to borrow someones mike!

The audition, I played with my backup mouthpiece on accident (The other one didn't sound as good in the range he had us play) and it turns out I didin't even have to play the upper range! I was MAD! But I got over it...

Another piece of this year is Orpheus in the Underworld; the Dah dah dah dah, da da da da da da da! one. Like, you picture a bunch of french people dancing.
