I would like to know if anyone has information on a Medieval (Glastonbuy) pipe. There is a picture and brief description of it at http://www.oworlds.com/, under instruments, woods, bagpipes. I would like to find an instruction book with a fingering chart to give as a gift for the person getting the instrument for Christmas. If anyone can help, I would definately appreciate it.
Thank You!

According to that website, the Glastonbury pipe is also known as an alto cornemuse. It is played the same as a Great Highland Bagpipe practice chanter, so any introductory book on the Great Highland Bagpipe (the normal Scots bagpipes) should do.
