ANGUS FIFES
- Angus Fifes has recently developed with the renewed interest in fifing and lambeg drumming within the Ulster Scots community in the UK.
- Angus Fifes is run as a small cottage style industry in Donaghadee, County Down. All fifes are hand made in various woods and can be made in different keys to suit your requirements - should it be Lambeg Drumming, Marching Fife and Drums, Re-enactment Societies or Folk music
- Fifes have a traditional cylindrical bore and can be made in the following keys: -
D - These could be played in the same style as a 'D' Penny Whistle. They can be very shrill in the top octave but have a lovely tone. These fifes can be played in the keys of 'D' and 'G' accompanying other instruments.
C# - This is the traditional key for Lambeg fifing. .
Bb --These fifes are tuned to the same pitch as a 'Bb' Penny Whistle and are used for re-enactment society fife and drum corps.
Bb (high pitch) - These fifes are in the same pitch as the 'Bb' high pitch marching band flutes
A - This is a great fife for playing any tune in the key of 'A' when accompanying other musicians. It has a deep mellow tone and is suitable for 'Folk Style' music
