Doedelzak is the actual generic term for the bagpipes in the Netherlands and the Flemish (Dutch) speaking northern part of Belgium, the region where painter Pieter Bruegel the Elder lived and worked. Formerly 'pijpzak' and 'moezelzak' were common. The latter two names, generic at one time, survive in the piposa (pipe au sac) from Picardy and muchosa (muse au sac) in the actual Belgian province of Hainaut. According to certain sources, muse once was the earliest generic name for this family of instruments in a large part of Europe and survives itself in the actual French generic name of cornemuse for all bagpipes.
