Pipers' Guild

The Pipers' Guild is an organization, originally formed in the United Kingdom, in the first half of the 20th century. Members make their own bamboo pipes, similar to tin whistles, and form local ensembles to play these pipes. Margaret James began making these based on a traditional goatherd's pipe in the 1920s and the organization sprung from this.
