Cabrette
The cabrette (French: literally "little goat", alternately musette) is a type of bagpipe which appeared in Auvergne, France in the 19th century, and rapidly spread to Haute-Auvergne and Aubrac.

Details
The cabrette comprises a chanter for playing the melody and a drone, but the latter is not necessarily functional. Though descended from earlier mouth-blown bagpipes, bellows were added to the cabrette in the mid-19th century. It is said that Joseph Faure, of Saint-Martin-de-Fugères en Haute-Loire, first applied a bellows to the cabrette. Faure, a carpenter stricken with lung disease, was inspired when he used a bellows to start a fire.

gollark: My main problem with the "no modified clients" thing is that it seems like an attempt to lock people into the *default* clients, and whatever they decide to do to those.
gollark: If their system is only "secure" because you can't (aren't meant to) directly interact with it, it's *not secure*.
gollark: I'm not a fan of the "no modified clients" ToS thing, but I never found a particularly good reason to actually use one anyway.
gollark: So all we need to do is have PyroBot secretly log everyone's messages somewhere and then after a while use them for training, great!
