Richard Mowat : ウィキペディア英語版 | Richard Mowat Richard Mowat or Mowatt (1865–1936) was a renowned and award-winning player of the Northumbrian smallpipes.〔(Short biography and photograph on FARNE archive. )〕 ==Biography==
A miner, born in Backworth in 1865, Mowat won the Northumbrian Smallpipes Society's piping competitions for three successive years 1894-6, and was subsequently barred from competitions. That society was short-lived, between 1893 and about 1899. In this period it awarded two pipers its Gold Medal; one was Mowat, and the other was Henry Clough.〔Piping Past, reprinted obituary by Gilbert Askew, Northumbrian Pipers' Society Magazine, v.2 7, 2006.〕 There are several photographs of him in the Cocks Collection; these can be viewed at,〔(Woodhorn Museum )〕〔(Woodhorn Museum )〕〔(Woodhorn Museum )〕〔(Woodhorn Museum )〕〔 (Woodhorn Museum )〕 Mowat, like Tom Clough, had studied the pipes with Thomas Todd, but he had a very different style from the Cloughs' close-fingered playing. He had, contrastingly, an unusual fingering style, occasionally lifting several fingers at a time, and sometimes his entire right hand, particularly on long notes in slow airs, such as ''Roslin Castle''. He was evidently not penalised in competitions for this, as he would be today. Mowat was chairman of the Northumbrian Pipers' Society from 1933 until his death in 1936. He was also regarded by his contemporaries as an expert reedmaker.〔(Short biography and photograph on FARNE archive. )〕
