Gaita gallega : ウィキペディア英語版
Galician gaita

The Galician gaita (''Gaita galega'' in galician, and ''Gaita gallega'' in Spanish) is the traditional instrument of Galicia. Is also used in some parts of Portugal.
The word ''gaita'' is used across northern Spain as a generic term for "bagpipe", although in the south of Spain and Portugal it denotes a variety of horn, flute or oboe like instruments according to region.
Suggestions as to the origin of the name ''gaita'' are many. It has been compared to the names of eastern European bagpipes, such as ''gaida'', ''gajda'', and ''gajdy''. The linguist Joan Coromines has suggested that the word ''gaita'' most likely derived from a Gothic word ''gait'' or ''gata'', meaning "goat"; as the bag of a gaita is made from a whole, case-skinned goat hide. Gothic was spoken in Spain from the sixth century to the eighth century when the country was ruled by the Visigoths. The Visigoths originated in eastern Europe.
== The instrument ==
The Galician gaita has a conical chanter and a bass drone (''ronco'') with a second octave. It may have one or two additional drones playing the tonic and dominant notes. Three keys are traditional: D (''gaita grileira'', lit. "cricket bagpipe"), C (''gaita redonda''), and Bb (''gaita tumbal''). Galician pipe bands playing these instruments have become popular in recent years.
The playing of close harmony (thirds and sixths) with two gaitas of the same key is a typical Galician gaita style.
The bagpipe or gaita is known to have been popular in the Middle Ages, as early as the 9th century, but suffered a decline in popularity from the 16th century until a 19th-century revival. It saw another decline in the middle of the 20th century when the Francoist dictatorship tried to use it for propagandistic purposes. Then, beginning in about the 1970s, a roots revival heralded another rebirth. The folk revival may have peaked in the late 1990s, with the release of acclaimed albums by Galician Carlos Núñez (''A Irmandade Das Estrelas'').
The gaita began to gain popularity with the massive immigration of Galicians to the United States and Latin America.The foundations of Galician Centers (Centro Galego / Casa Galicia) in key cities and capitals, from New York City to Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Traditional use include both solo performances or with a snare-drum known as ''tamboril'' (a wooden natural-skinned drum with gut snares), and the ''bombo'', a bass drum.
Galician bagpipes come in three main varieties, though there are exceptions and unique instruments. These include the ''tumbal'' (B-flat), ''grileira'' (D) and ''redonda'' (C).
