So what's that The hang 70 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 4: of this takes quite a while. 71 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 3: Is this where the notes are coming from? 72 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 4: Now? 73 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 3: It's like a recorder sort of situation on the handle 74 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 3: the chanter.
