What a difference a hole free bag and a reed that works makes. I also sent the old bag back to its maker and he did repair it. So, again, luckily, I had also pipemaker in town. The reed was no good and could not be adjusted, the chanter was off and required tape, AND, the bag had a gaping hole in it hidden by the pretty “pajamas”. We spent the first tutor session just checking the set.

Luckily there was a tutor in town, Channing Dodson. I could not get into the 2nd octave, it was all out of tune, and I was pumping the bellows like a banshee. I never got help on the first chanter 10 years ago and because it was so hard to play, I sold the set and that was that.Ī year ago I got a a set that had a short lead time and was not that expensive. You, as a beginner, will not have a clue as to where to start. First, there is a high likelihood that there will be something wrong with your practice set or at least something that needs to be adjusted. The reason for this may be obvious but some stuff is not. Find a tutor or other experienced piper who is willing to spend some time with you. So here is what I have learned and would like to pass along to other beginners.ġ.

I also had a practice set for about a year over 10 years ago but never had a real tutor and never got further than playing a couple of tunes badly. I have been at it learning the Uilleann pipes now for a year.
