Hello dear friends,
The difference between how much air we spend in larger pipe is too
small.Because we talk only about 1-2 mm.The most important think is the
conformation of the lips.The distance between pipes dependes of the neck's
lenght.This are the diferences between"standard"panpipes
and"special"panpipes.With the smaller diamters it is more easy to get"bemol".At
last everything depends of the level of practicing.
By the way...friday night whrn I came from work I have seen on tv a concert
with Gheorghe Zamfir and a romanian folk group of about 6-7 musicians.It was
GREAT.It was a music leason on that stage.I was so impressed.He proofed again
the"main land"of the panpipe.As long arround the world are plenty of
panpipe(calling by themselfs)players,teachers,etc...making real industries from
the panpipe,this MAN at his age is stil in a great power and playing CORRECT.
God bless,
Ovidiu
