Billy Pigg, The Border Minstrel

Published in 1997, this book was based on extensive research by A. D. Schofield and edited by Julia Say. It contains a biography of Billy Pigg, a study of his unique playing style, a collection of all his known compositions and transcriptions of some tunes which have become associated with him. Billy was undoubtedly one of the most influential pipers in the period before the modern resurgence of the pipes.
