about

Aeolian Variations is a trio of bagpipe (sans drones), keyboard bass and digital drum set. The piece is freely improvised using many of the embellishments employed in Scottish Highland Bagpipe playing, in particular those used in piobaireachd (pibroch), but without the formal opening Urlar (theme), progressive variations on a ground and the slow, stately tempo. The title comes from the fact that the available pitches of the pipes make up those of the old Greek Aeolian mode which is the equivalent of our modern descending A minor scale.
