 Breton JAF Part 3: Pipes and Harp
It is thought that the biniou was adapted from the veuze in the nineteenth century, as an accompaniment to the bombarde; it plays exactly one octave higher than its bagless cousin.
The difference is that the biniou plays continuously, while the bombarde is played either every other line, or sometimes in a three lines on, one line off rotation.
The biniou-kozh, or "old biniou," is so called because of the adoption of a newer type of bagpipe into Brittany, the Highland bagpipe of Scotland.

 Biniou and Bagad
These bagpipes did not attain any degree of popularity until the late 1930s when they were used in place of the biniou koz in pair with the bombarde.
At this point the Scottish bagpipe came to be known as the biniou braz or biniou nevez and they were modified in tuning to more closely match the fingering of the small biniou koz.
In the 1960s Bretons reverted to the Scottish model and its tuning in using this instrument in the bagad.

 Pipe band - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A popular bagad, Bagad Brieg, recently performed with the Shotts and Dykehead Caledonia Pipe Band and released a recording in 2002 entitled La Boum Ecosse, in which both the traditional pipe band and the bagad perform together.
A modern-day bagad consists of a biniou braz (bagpipe), a bombarde section, a drum corps, perhaps more accurately described nowadays as a 'large and varied percussion section' (one band's percussionists lug around a huge metal model elephant), and any additional musical instruments the band wishes to add.
Common additions are small jazz orchestras, guitars, and other forms of binious.
