Stopped left hand chanter; It ends in the shape of a flat disk, or a "falsa campana" [false bell]; Tucci states that the chanter bells of the Stifetta of Mesoraca (prov. Crotone) "have a real cavity"; Leydi’s claim that the only other bagpipe with a stopped chanter would be the Northumbrian bagpipe is incorrect (The Petit chalumeau of the Musette de cour is stopped as well); NB: ➺ Dritta, and Iamas.
