Bagpipe Lessons

I offer both private one-on-one lessons and group lessons. All that you will require is a practice chanter and determination to start. I will supply you with sheet music. A tutor book is not required. I will recommend several books as the lessons progress to aid you in home practice. For more information about learning to play the bagpipes see my article on the subject: Learning to Play the Bagpipes

Bagpipe Lessons include instruction for all skill levels and ages following the College of Piping syllabus customized to your requirements. Students will learn to read, write and play music on the Practice Chanter, Great Highland Bagpipe. Lessons for adults and children in both group and private settings.
