Bagpipe Trivia

• The Bagpipe is the only musical instrument in history ever deemed as a weapon of war. It was used to inspire its troops into battle and to scare off enemies.
• Bagpipes were traditionally made with the whole skin of a dead sheep, turned inside out. The pipes were placed where the legs and the neck should be. Today they are more commonly made with artificial fabric, Gore-Tex.
• While Scotland is largely associated with the bagpipes, there are also bagpipes from North Africa, Middle East, and South-West Asia.
