That’s so great Colin! You’re still young enough to learn the pipes and buy green bananas at the grocery store!!

From what I've been told, there's 2 songs that a piper must know. Amazing grace and the other one. I've learned amazing grace, and now here I am.

Well done😊

This is really fun …. Thank you for taking your time out and doing this for all of us that are learning to play. I’m sure I can speak for most of us here when I say that we truly appreciate your time and you just so happens to be that this is the song that I’m learning right now and I was having a really hard time with the beginning of this song and you just simplified it. I’m actually able to do a TAORLUATH..

Question: I’ve accepted the learn the bagpipes challenge. I am Scottish. More than 30 year’s experience as a musician. I play flute, clarinet, sax, bassoon, tin whistle, recorder… where do I start? WHAT do I buy?

Great to hear!!!! I'm sure your musical background will help. To get started all you need is a good quality practice chanter (not from ebay). To see different options check out my site: www.getbagpipeready.com/3d-printed-bagpipes

How much does your bagpipe costs in the background it looks soo cool

@GetBagpipeReady

Жыл бұрын

They were a gift, so I'm not sure how much they were. They are high quality wooden pipes. The mounts are just Nickle (I think) not engraved, once you get into the silver engraving the price goes up and up in a hurry.

I want you in Scotland

Can ido it on pipes😊

I have one question: why is your bass drone neary on the mounts? Best regards from germany

@GetBagpipeReady

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for your question, Teamplay-LP! I think your referring to the bottom hole on my chanter? The pinky of my bottom hand is quite low down, as the chanter I'm playing is a "short" chanter. Most practice chanters you buy now are "long" or "standard" length, comparable to the length of the pipe chanter on the highland pipes. My practice chanter is really quite old, but I just love the sound! (Also, my longer practice chanter is sometimes harder to fit all my fingers in the camera shot when I'm filming!).

Oh yes, I forgot I had my pipes behind me in that video! I had just propped them up so they would be in the shot. The Bass drone is shortened, so the pipes stayed balanced and didn't fall off the small chair. If I were to pick them up and tune them, defiantly I'd end up sliding that bass drone would up, away from the mounts!

Thank you so much!! Glad to hear my videos are of some help to you 😀 It is great to get feedback about that sheet music too. Here is a link to some music for Scotland the brave: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scotland_the_Brave

I would love to learn the pipes but i have difficulty reading the music and play the notes maybe i am too old at 74

The oldest person I met who was learning was just 93 years old!! I've more than one student who doesn't read sheet music. You've got this! Any Bagpipe supply store online with customer service can sell you a Sheppard, Mcallum, RG Hardie, or Walsh practice chanter for $100 to $120. Another option is you can get a chanter from my friend Davey, made in the USA! Use the coupon code GETBAGPIPE5 to get 5% off and another 5% will go to the African Blackwood conservation Project! His chanters sound great and are a lot cheaper which helps if you are on a budget or saving up for a set of pipes! www.3dprintedbagpipes.com/product-page/long-practice-chanter
