Today we visited a master at his home nr. Varna.
He is a traditional "Gaida" master. They are made completely hand made and very beautifull in sound and in looks.
The first "Gaida" was from Rhodope Mountains in Bulgaria where the tradition spread rapidly accross the country.
The gaida (bagpipe) is an musical instrument, aerophone, using enclosed reeds fed from a constant reservoir of air in the form of a bag.
The gaida, and its variations, is an traditional musical instrument for entire Europe, Northern Africa and the Middle East.
Below is a picture of the one we purchased for ourselves, although this will also serve two or three other purposes.
It will be played and also be an advertising piece for anyone wishing to purchase on of these lovely traditional instruments as a souvenir. They are not very expensive for a basic model and make a great conversation piece for you friends.
