25th January 2020 at the Recital Room, City Halls, Glasgow (Two Octaves gig).
The Scottish Smallpipes (or Smallpipe) goes back to at least the 15th century. It disappeared until a revival in the 1980s. The Smallpipes has a cylindrical bore chanter and three drones in a common stock. It is normally bellows blown, though mouth blown versions exist. It differs from the Northumbrian Smallpipes in having an open end to the chanter and no keys. The Border Pipes differ in having a conical bore chanter and being much louder (though quieter than the Highland Pipes).
The Lindsay System Chanter was developed by Donald W.G. Lindsay from Glasgow between 2006 and 2018. It is an open source design which uses no keywork, and retains the typical fingering and intonation for an A Scottish Smallpipe chanter. The range is two octaves compared to the usual nine notes.
Scottish Smallpipes are assigned the number 422.111.2-62 in the Hornbostel-Sachs classification of musical instruments ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hornbostel-Sachs ), indicating:
4 = Aerophones. Sound is primarily produced by vibrating air. The instrument itself does not vibrate, and there are no vibrating strings or membranes.
42 = Non-free aerophones. The vibrating air is contained within the instrument.
422 = Reed Instruments. The player's breath is directed against a lamella or pair of lamellae which periodically interrupt the airflow and cause the air to be set in motion.
422.1 = Double reed instruments or 7s. There are two lamellae which beat against one another.
422.11 = Single Oboes [as opposed to sets of Oboes].
422.111 = With cylindrical bore.
422.111.2 = With fingerholes.
422.111.2-62 = With Flexible Air Reservoir
OCTAVE LAPIZE (1887-1917) was a French professional road racing cyclist and track cyclist.
Most famous for winning the 1910 Tour de France and a bronze medal at the 1908 Summer Olympics in the men's 100 kilometres, he was a three-time winner of one-day classics, Paris–Roubaix and Paris–Brussels.
His career was cut short by the Great War. He became a fighter pilot and was shot down over the western front.

VIDEO - Vitas in Vancouver ‘Sleepless Nights’ www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSMGJbP-H90
This is the FIRST EVER concert that Vitas has performed in Vancouver, Canada at the River Rock Show Theatre in Richmond, BC on February 03, 2011. Vitas sang in different languages: Italian (Nessun Dorma, O Sole Mio, La Donna Mobile, Ave Maria), Chinese (青藏高原 The Tibetan Plateau) and, of course, Russian where the singer is from. The concert is a brand new production named Sleepless Nights and Vitas is being branded as an ‘Artist Who You Have Been Waiting For.’
The high octave operatic style of music has that unique Vitas showmanship coupled with a genuine desire to please the audience which made him such an international star who has sold more than 100 million CDs worldwide. In his official Russian web site, Vitas is known as an author/composer/actor.
The music video MV of Vitas’s concert in Vancouver is only at Vancouver 21 and affiliated sites. A special thank you to the Vitas concert producers for making this exclusive arrangement possible.

No laptops please for Octave One, the Detroit techno outfit. The Burden brothers played a fierce set @ Dekmantel.
Taken from the balcony of my room at the Hilton Paris Eiffel hotel.

French-born Octave Chanute never lived in Chanute, Kansas. However, one of the four railroads he built through Kansas made the town possible. He is honored on Main Street by this memorial to flight - a mobile replication of the Wright brothers' flying machine.
Chanute, an engineer by profession and credited with building several important railroad bridges (including Kansas City's Hannibal Bridge), was keenly interested in aviation. His book on the subject of gliders caught the attention of Wilbur and Orville, who contacted him. Chanute served as a mentor to the young aviators, and their first flying machine frame was almost identical to Chanute's glider.
Some good reading on Octave Chanute's interesting life and career at: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octave_Chanute or on the Chanute city web site at: www.chanute.org/Visiting/history/octave.htm

Last night's visit was to Octave @ Marriott Hotel on Sukhumvit and Soi 57, just a short 5 stop BTS ride. The bar/lounge is located on multiple floors, we had our drinks and food on floor 45, then went to the top, 48th floor for the 360 views. I had the Chandon Sparkling wine… not from CA or France, but Australia… seems Chandon has spread its roots. The corn fritters were excellent and the shrimp was very good once we added a squeeze of lim juice! Best part is the rain held off until later in the evening when we were safely is a restaurant at Terminal 21!
