Ontario has a vibrant and thriving bagpipe scene. More and more people are learning the instrument and you don’t need to be Scottish.
Students will start on a practice chanter which is a quieter version of the part of the bagpipe that produces the melodies.
Students learn basic technique and some simple tunes on the practice chanter before graduating to the full bagpipe. (Generally, 6 months to a year after starting lessons)
Once competent on the instrument there are opportunities to play with other bagpipers in the Guelph Pipe Band.
We can offer instruction for players of all levels.
Our instructors compete at the professional and top amateur levels in Ontario.
