Margaret Peng
Yang ChenHello, I'm Jody!
And welcome to American Cafe.
Today I thought we would introduce Margaret Peng, the Chinese-American woman we met who does something quite uncommon. She's a drummer in a Scottish pipe band. Yang Chen, how cool is that!?
I'm a tenor drummer in the pipe band and I started playing in high school. Eh... I had a friend who was in the bagpipe band in high school. That what she played. She said: "Come on join it with me, join it." So I did it and I didn't think I'd keep doing it but I am.
How many years now?
In this band I've been in it for 12, 12 years. Right.
12 years! Wow.
That's simple. She was in high school and a friend told her to come join the band.
Yang Chen, I was so impressed when we saw Margaret Peng twirling her mallets in the air! It's like she was dancing! Really beautiful. She explained to me that the mallets are actually the sticks you use to bang the drum.
The music of the Scottish pipe band is so bizarre, isn't it?
You know.
I don't think anything sounds quite like the music of Scotland. And especially the bagpipes. While the drums are familiar, Yang Chen, to many cultures, I don't think the bagpipes are.
