The muchosa is a kind of
bagpipe that is currently played mainly in Hainaut, Wallonia Belgium. This
musical instrument was previously known down into the north of France as far as
Picardy.

The muchosa has a chanter
with a conical bore together with double reed that is pitched to B-flat. It
possesses two single-reeded drones. The treble drone of this musical instrument
is placed in a common stock together with the chanter and also the bass drone
is placed back in its own stock. In this sense, this musical instrument has the
same similarities with other bagpipes in central and northern France.
