Na Píobairí Uilleann ({{IPA-ga|n̪ˠa pʲiʊ̟bˠaɾʲi ɪlʲən̪ˠ

}}, meaning "The Uilleann Pipers") is a non-profit organization dedicated to the promotion of the Irish Uilleann pipes and its music.[1]

Organisation

NPU was founded in 1968 in Dublin, Ireland under the impetus of researcher and collector Breandán Breathnach and pipers such as Seamus Ennis, Leo Rowsome and Paddy Moloney (of the Chieftains), many of whom had played with the Dublin Pipers Club.[2] Its headquarters are located in Henrietta Street, Dublin, in a restored Georgian building with facilities for many activities. Membership of the organisation is now spread throughout Ireland, England, Scotland, Continental Europe, North America and Australia.[3] Among the notable musicians associated with NPU are:

  • Sean McAloon, piper and pipe-maker from County Fermanagh
  • Finbarr Dwyer, accordion player from Castletownbere, County Cork
  • Mick O'Brien, piper from Dublin
  • Liam O'Flynn, one of the best-known pipers
  • Paddy Keenan, one of the top pipers
  • Sean Potts, served first as Honorary Secretary, and then, for fourteen years from 1988, as Chairman. Now Honorary President
  • Pat Mitchell, Dublin piper, teacher and collector of tunes.[4]

Activities

The goals and activities of the organization are numerous. Regular classes on piping technique, pipe making, and reed making are taught to students of all ages and abilities. NPU is also making a major effort to re-master and re-release recordings of deceased masters of the instrument as well as record living masters. The club offers a wide range of tutorial materials including DVDs, CDs, and books.[5]
