I refer to myself as a Northumbrian piper in such circumstances.

I have a serious question for you, whom I recognize as the panel of experts. There is a church near by that on Thursdays during the warmer months has a concert series. They have had various musicians: cellists, flautists, violinists, etc. The concerts are only 1/2 hour long and are free and open to the public. I have been asked if I would like to be one of the featured musicians. I plan to play my Northumbrian smallpipes and maybe my Scottish smallpipes as well. The program lists each performer by date, name and then what their specialty is: John Smith - Trumpeter Cindy Doe - Harpist If I say "Ernie Shultis - Piper" people where I live only know about the Great Highland Bagpipes. So my question is, as you see in my Subject line: "What Do You Call Yourself?" Thank you for your time and Happy New Year everyone.
