Association Sonneurs de Veuzes

The Association Sonneurs de Veuzes (French: "Association of Veuze [bagpipe] Players") was formed in Nantes in 1976 for players of the veuze, a traditional bagpipe of Brittany and Nantes.

The society promotes the knowledge of playing and the history of the instrument.[1][2]

Its founders included Roland Le Moigne, and it was later led by Thierry Moreau.[3]
