Bulgarian Kaba Gaida is musical bagpipe instrument similar to the gaida. It is aerophone, using enclosed reeds fed from a constant reservoir of air in the form of a bag. The Kaba gaida is larger and lower pitched than the typical gaida. It is native to the Rhodope Mountains of Bulgaria.
333 Bulgarian bagpipers with this performance set a new Guinness Record. The youngest bagpiper was a 9-year-old boy and the oldest one was 80 years old.
