about

Gaidarski is a Balkan folk melody played on a length of narrow aluminium tube with a sopranino sax mouthpiece attached. This hybrid instrument also incorporates a “flea hole” which is characteristic to the melody tube (or chanter) in both Macedonian and Bulgarian bagpipes. The flea-hole enables a modal major/minor shift along with some characteristic gracings.

My thanks to friend and mentor, Linsey Pollak whose invention, the gaidanet, was inspiration for this, my own version.
