Askomandoura – Cretan bagpipe

2024-07-03

A rare opportunity to dive into the exhilarating world of tsambouna playing, with this Cretan askomandoura made by Antonis Stefanakis in 2013. I had every good intention of learning these, but time, sadly, had other ideas, so they need a better home. Ideal for beginner or seasoned player alike.

• twin chanters, with single reeds, can be played in unison (as is traditional in Crete), or to create harmonies
• eye-catching and stylish orange goatskin bag
• chanter binding replaced by Mike York, to allow easy access to the reeds
• wild, captivating sound
