That's a big zampogna, do you get little light headed when playing it?

Well, I can see that the dog is an old trooper...
You do look a bit puffed, though. Is it really hard? I mean, it's still just four reeds, even though a bit bigger than usual.

I did the video while completely bored on day 3 of the flu.
Im all better now, but it IS still a chore to blow.
not because of higher pressure, but that the amount of air required dries out the throat quickly.
Most I can do at one time, without taking a break, is 10 min.
On the next size down, 5 palmi, I can pipe for up to 20 minutes,
but it tends to annoy the dog, (she has suffered SO paitently all these years)

I am of a mind, one day, to turn the bag inside out and give the goat a close shave:
this will decrease the bag resistance & make an easier job playing.

Interesting to note, Ciarameddaru especialy, there is a tube tied to the front end of the ceppo, inside, that extends over the reeds, through the 'ceppo-cutaway', down into the bag past the animal's neck. this makes the airflow MUCH more conductive. I wonder if a lagrer diameter tube would have a more beneficial effect?

oh,& incidentally:
