Jonathan can play as a solo bagpiper or with the accompaniment of several members of his family, who also play the bagpipes. He can also play the Scottish Smallpipes (which are a quieter version of the highland pipes) and the Uilleann Pipes (Irish Pipes), which are ideal for playing in enclosed spaces, and as quiet entertainment, such as during the signing of the register and Irish funerals / wakes. Jonathan can also provide a full band to back him on the Uilleann pipes which includes bodhrรกn, concertina, tin whistle and fiddle players.
