Ok, at least it shouldn’t be in the whistle forum… How do you pronounce Uilleann pipe?

There’s a search feature (above) that I used to find these links.

This should provide you with much entertainment.

Just like it is spelled…

Illen pipes (chillin’ with the uilleann pipes, chillin’ and uilleann [illen] should rhyme).
