Kaynak Pipers of Bulgaria bring multiple kaba gaida (singe drone, low-pitched Bulgarian bagpipe) masters together, along with traditional drummers, to preserve the traditional music from their home in the Rhodope mountain region of Bulgaria. The word "kaynak" means "source" and is used to name a kaba gaida performer's specific tunes/instrumentals, often demonstrating their performing skills. In ensemble format, there is a force and power rarely heard in the United States.
