From bourque-moreau.com (link is now gone):

The third CD in the folk instruments series is dedicated to the gajda (bagpipe). This CD features 17 tracks of traditional Bulgarian melodies played by master pipers from different regions of Bulgaria, including: Georgi Mussorliev, Kostadin Varimezov, Georgi Doichev, Peicho Peev, Dimitar Chupetlovski, Nikola Atanassov, etc. There are some seldom-heard recordings from the archives of the Bulgarian Radio and some specially recorded for GegaNew under the supervision of folk music editor Lili Hristozova. There are detailed notes on the history of the Bulgarian gajda written by Prof. Manol Todorov. There are rare examples from N.W. Bulgaria and even a track with a double-chanter gajda from the Varna region. Most tracks festure solo gajda players accompanied by tapan or small orchestra including several good "danceable" tunes. Released in May 2004.
