The instructor will introduce students to the rudiments of playing the Great Highland Bagpipe. Basic fingering and embellishments will be taught. The different types of bagpipe music will be discussed and simple tunes will be taught. This is a class for beginners, and as such, there will be no learning done on the bagpipe itself. Students will learn on the bagpipe's practice instrument, the practice chanter.

It is recommended that you contact the instructor (tewok@portrigh.com) prior to purchasing your own practice chanter.
