Tejedor

Post by Art »

This is a good example of technically well-done gaita playing, supposedly by a member of the band Tejedor:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvas88IG ... ed&search=

It's a great demonstration of the capabilities of the gaita asturiana. I don't think the gallega can do much of that ornamentation. But I don't think I could take more than a few minutes of listening to this kind of showing off. I'd rather hear a melody.

Es una demostración buena de las capacidades de la gaita asturiana. No pienso que la gallega puede hacer muchos de esos adornos. Pero no creo que podría aguantar más que algunos minutos de escuchar esta clase de presumir. Me gustaría oir más una melodía.

¡Interesante! Hace mucho tiempo me preguntaba de dónde vino el nombre de al banda. ¿Es José Manuel Tejedor el gaitero?

--------------------

That's interesting. I've always wondered where the band's name came from. Is José Manuel Tejedor the gaita player?

El nome'l grupu vien pol apellíu Tejedor, son tres hermanos José (gaites y flautes), Javi (curdión, gaita y percusión) y Eva (voz y percusión).
José ye ún de los meyores gaiteros d'Asturies, sinon el meyor, pero Javi tamién toca la gaita perbién y tien ganáu un troféu MacAllan nel Fest. de Lorient.

The name of the group comes from the family name Tejedor. They are three siblings: José (bagpipes and flutes), Javi (accordion, bagpipes, and percussion), and Eva (vocals and percussion). José is one of the best gaiteros in Asturias, if not the best, but Javi also plays the bagpipes and has won a MacAllan trophy at the Lorient Inter-Celtic Festival.

Watching Xuaco Amieva http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPq7XUVxlXA&NR=1 one can clearly see that the gaita is only blown into to replenish the air in the bag. Can't help but wonder how come nobody has improved the design by using a foot powered air pump instead.... :wink:

Hey, Elí!

There are bellows-blown bagpipes, like the Irish "Uilleann pipes," the Czech "dudy" (also known in German as the "bock"), or the "Scottish smallpipes."

I'm not sure about this, but I'd guess that most of the bellow-blown pipes are quieter than the mouth-blown.

But those all use arm power. If a bagpipe were powered by foot, it'd be the cousin of the pump organ.

------------------------

¡Hola, Elí!

Hay gaitas sopladas por fuelle mecánica, como las "Uilleann pipes" irlandesas, el "dudy" checo (también sabido en alemán como el "bock"), o las "smallpipes escoceses".

No soy seguro sobre esto, pero conjeturaría que la mayor parte de las gaitas sopladas por fuelle mecánica son menos ruidosas que la mayor las sopladas por boca.

Pero todas esas funcionan por uso del brazo. Si una gaita accionara por el pie, sería la prima del órgano de bomba.

Hola Art. encontré hace tiempo este vídeo de un festival de gaita en Armagh (Irlanda) en el que interviene Anxo Lorenzo y Lunasa. Lo que me gustó es que interpretan primero la melodía gallega "Aires de Pontevedra" y hacen un "medley" con "la muñeira de Casu" de Asturias:

Hello, Art. A while back I found this video of a bagpiping festival in Armagh (Ireland) in which Anxo Lorenzo performed with Lunasa. What I like about this medley is that they first play "Aires de Pontevedra", a Galician melody, and then the Asturian tune, "La Muñeira de Casu".
