    Masterclass

    This Easter week-end, I was happy to give a masterclass for a folk group called "Bois sec !" ("Dry wood", referring to their instruments, I suppose !).
    We had a great time in this beautiful manor near the city of Lyon. They were very concentrated, and we've done good work together.
    Here are a few pictures of us .

    They are French "Béchonnet" Pipes. They have an octave and a half (from G to high C !) and they sound simply great !
