Pisillo, Andrea

?-?

maker of bagpipes (&c.) mentioned by name

[Born and lives/lived?] in Farneta (a fraction of Castroregio, prov. Cosenza, in an area that culturally is considered more "Lucan" [i.e. "of Lucania"); No additional details found;
NB: Considering the available topographic details, I had the impression that he is the same person as Andrea Pisilli (Basilicata), which has been confirmed by Mr. Scaldaferri.

Instrument: Surdulina
