The answer

PIPER

What piper means

A person who plays a pipe, especially bagpipes, often traditionally in Scotland or Ireland, or someone hired to play music at an event.

Where the word comes from

From Old English *pipere*, borrowed from Latin *pīpāre*, meaning to play a pipe or whistle. The Latin verb derives from *pīpa*, the pipe instrument itself, likely of imitative origin—the word echoes the sound a pipe makes. The -er suffix marks one who does the action, so a piper is simply a pipe player.
