    Has anyone played harp with bagpipers and dealt with those tuning issues?

    I have done 3 wedding ceremonies over the years with pipers, one of them with 4 pipers indoors – while I didn’t ever play with them, I can tell you that the volume of sound they generate

    I know about the volume as I’ve played weddings with pipers as well.

    I have played my pedal harp with bagpipers in the past, altho not without challenges

    What scale name pitch is 470Hz? Are you saying that they call traditional concert pitch A440 470?
