Reported as Issue 3605 <http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3605>: DOC: Bagpipe.ly corrections neededThe GHB or Great Highland Bagpipe, is tuned in A mixolydian, often considerably higher than the standard pitch, up towards A = 480 Hz. The manual [1], "Bagpipes", 2.6.2, calls it D major, and omits the "Great" in the name of the bagpipe. Cf. [2], and net-searches on "GHB mixolydian". 1. http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/notation/bagpipes 2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Highland_Bagpipe
