CelticPipes is an easy-to-use music notation software application (for Mac and Windows) that allows you to compose and play quality scores principally for the Great Highland Bagpipe and for the following traditional 'Celtic' musical (and percussion) instruments:

CelticPipes has been designed from the outset to be easy to use. It is also very 'open', allowing a variety of commonly used file formats to be imported and exported. For example, import formats are: ABC, BMW, BWW and PIO (PiobMaster, for the Highland Bagpipe - currently Windows only )

With the use of the Transposition tool to change keys, even suitable Fiddle tunes in ABC may be imported and transposed for other instruments!
