	Track #2 from the CD "Bagpipes of the World;" this large French bagpipe is often heard together, as it is here, with an accompanying Vielle a Roue (wheel-fiddle or hurdy-gurdy). Here the Vielle is played by a veteran master of the instrument, Arrigo D'Albert of Switzerland and Northern California. Sean and Arrigo demonstrate the great power of these two ancient acoustic instruments with two traditional tunes: "Rigadon Bressan" and "Ton Ruban Bleu." As always on this CD, the bagpipe is first heard alone, so the listener can identify it.

	Story Behind the Song This recording required numerous takes, largely because it is a genuine duet, not an overdubbing.
