6. The Pitch and Scale of the Great Highland Bagpipe
- www-personal.umich.edu
- Winter 1998 issue of the magazine New Zealand Pipeband The pitch of the chanter .
- While the pitches of the drones and the tonic note on the chanter are referred to as 'A', they are actually much sharper (higher than Bb) than this on the modern Great Highland Bagpipe. ... Published measurements from 1885 show the pitch of one chanter to be 441 Hz, while the average of several chanters was found to be 459 Hz in the mid 1950s. ... In most of the following discussion, I will ignore this pitch discrepancy and refer to the notes by their "chanter names". ...
- Pipers think of the scale of the chanter as consisting of the notes in the octave between low A and high A with an extra low G below low A. ... However, if one plays these notes on a piano, one will not hear a scale resembling the chanter scale, even if one transposes up to Bb. ... So what scale is A, B, C#, D, E, F#, G, A ? If the G were G#, then this would be an A Major scale, however the chanter G is close to G-natural. ...
- While the scale is indeed a major scale with a flattened 7th, the precise frequencies of the notes on the chanter do not match those of a piano, guitar, or standard Western wind instrument playing that scale. ...
- The nine notes available on the chanter are fixed, the chanter melody is played against the unchanging tone of the drones, and traditional pipe music does not involve harmony-playing between chanters. ...
- In solo pipe music the frequency ratio we are concerned with is always that between the chanter and the drones. Since the drone notes are "A" (one or two octaves below the chanter's low A) we can just define the frequency of each note on the chanter by the ratio of its frequency to that of low A. ...
- Not all of the frequency ratios on the chanter are universally agreed-upon, and tuning styles, like the overall pitch, have changed with time. ...
- Before finally getting to a listing the frequencies of the notes of the chanter scale, it will be useful to describe a second method of indicating frequency ratios. The interval of a semitone (for example, from C(#) to D on the chanter) is a frequency difference of about 6%. In the range of frequencies covered by the pipe chanter, the human ear can detect frequency changes of about 0. ...
- Finally, here is a table indicating the frequency ratios between the notes of the chanter and low A. ...
