Inquire About Pipe or Drum Lessons
We will be delighted to get you started with lessons on the bagpipe or drum,
if you can answer "Yes" to all of these questions:
- Have you read the Web page on our teaching program?
- Do you understand that bagpipes and drums are not simple
instruments and require perseverance and some talent to master even
the basics?
- Are you willing to practice regularly?
- Will you be conscientious about telling instructors when you
will be absent before the date of the lesson?
- Will you place high priority on attendance at lessons?
- Are you willing to commit to playing in our band when your
instructor says you are ready?
- Once in the band, will you be a good band member (ie memorize
the music in a timely manner, attend band practices and performances
with regularity, and support the band's mission)?
- If you are learning bagpipes, do you have a place where you
can practice a loud instrument regularly? (home, school, church, late
after work, etc.)
- If you are learning bagpipes, will you be prepared to purchase
an acceptable set of bagpipes within two years?
Depending on the situation, we might still be able to accommodate you with
lessons even if you cannot commit to playing in the band later. If this is
the case, contact us.
If you could say "Yes" to all that, then give us the following information in an email: your name, day and evening phone numbers, when you'd like to get started, and previous experience.
We'll get back with you about how to get started and when your lessons will be. We're excited you are interested, and we hope you'll enjoy the heck out of our group, activities,
and music!
