The contribution submits a thought about some phenomena which are connected with bagpipe music in southern and western Bohemia. In terms of methodology, it is based on an analysis of period sources as well as author’s own musical practice, and it tries to apply these on another analysis and the interpretation of bagpipe folk music in the regions of Chebsko and Chodsko. Based on catalogued hand-written records of German songs from Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia, which are stored at the Institute of Ethnology of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague, as well as printed Czech and German collections of songs from Bohemia, and the oldest voice records of Bohemian folk music, it is possible to map the continual development of bagpipe folk music in southern and western Bohemia since the beginning of the 19th century to date. The analysis of all the sources shows that the bagpipe folk music from the regions of Chodsko and Chebsko formed a compact culture despite all the language differences between both regions. Due to musical notations in the oldest collections of folk music and due to the oldest voice records, it is possible to interpret the bagpipe folk music from the aforementioned regions reliably and in an informed form even today.
