High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Pibroch, Ceol Mor or Piobaireachd is an art music genre associated primarily with the Scottish Highlands that is characterised by extended compositions with a melodic theme and elaborate formal variations. It is currently performed principally on the Great Highland Bagpipe. and is also increasingly played on the Scottish fiddle and the wire-strung Gaelic harp or clarsach, among other instruments, as part of a recent revival. Traditionally, many pipers prefer the name Ceol Mor which is Scottish Gaelic meaning the "Great Music," to distinguish this complex extended art-music from the more common kinds of popular Scottish music such as dances, reels, marches and strathspeys, which are called Ceol Beag or "Little Music". The word pibroch is first attested in Lowland Scots in 1719. It is derived from the Scottish Gaelic word Piobaireachd, which literally means "piping" or "act of piping".
