School of Piping and Drumming

Group Lessons are at the core of our teaching program. They make provide students learning to play bagpipes or drums a solid foundation for success on their instrument. These occur at the twice a month (every-other week) rehearsals beginning at 9 AM. These run around an hour.

 

The students then are free to leave, or can watch the band rehearsal until that comes to an end by 2:00 PM.

Individual Lessons give the student the opportunity to work with a playing member of the band to polish what they learned at the group lesson, and address any trouble spots. These happen at the beginning of the weekly Thursday rehearsals, starting at 6:30 PM and run around 30 minutes. 

If desired, other arrangements can be made to meet with a member outside of these times in person or for a virtual lesson.

Reach out to the Band Manager with questions.
