Member's Livestream at 1500 UK Time on 29th May... tomorrow! We'll be looking at Early Tunes.. My early tunes that is, and if you want the music, please email me. The music is written by my own Teacher, Hugh Wilson, from 1969 - 1975 or so, but should be legible enough.
Should include... The Quaker Wife, My Land, The Top Of Ben Lomond, The High Road To Gairloch, Dream Valley Of Glendaruel, The Barren Rocks Of Aden, and if we get time, I've just found my original copy (Is that a thing?) of The Crags Of Tumbledown Mountain, written by my PM Jimmy Riddell in 1982.. See you tomorrow!
Sun's out! Member's livestream for April tomorrow at 1400 Scots Time... Thats 2pm on Friday 26th April 2024. Focus will be on Smallpipes and perhaps a little guitar and clarinet. Usual monthly updates too. As usual, live to the public during broadcast and locked down for members thereafter
Chattanooga Collection now done and dusted. We're back on to the Cabar Feidh Collection, picking up at more or less half way through the book.
Well into the Spring term now.. next members livestream (which will now be strictly members only, sorry!) Is Thursday 28th March 2024 at 1300 Scots time. Lets do some Strathspeys. All SG Book 1
Hi all. Hope you've been enjoying the tunes from The Chattanooga Collection. Only 21 more to record at the time of writing.Anyway, advance notice - February Member's Livestream will be at 1300 Scottish time on the 29th Feb. We'll be looking at the Piobaireachd., The Little Spree. This can be found in the Piobaireachd Society books, Kilberry book, and written out in full, in Scots Guards Book 2. As usual while we're live, we'll be available to all, then locked down for members only as soon as we're done.
Quick brief for our members livestream for January... We'll be live around 1400 Scottish time, and our topic will be "The Green Book" ... and yes, as much as we can manage! Free and available to all live, locked down for members only thereafter.
Happy New Year to all! We kinda tailed off towards the end of 2023, I broke my ankle in October, and only got out of the cast a few weeks ago. Entering 2024 firing on all cylinders though, if not with 2 good legs. 3 Burns videos with multiple tunes recorded and awaiting release, and I've started recording the tunes in Chattanooga Pipe Band's new book. Will finish Argylls book 1 and Cabar Feidh this year, together with whatever incidental stuff may crop up. And as soon as I'm fit, I'll be populating our PIPER OUTDOORS channel with new stuff. Onwards!
Advance notice... This month's members livestream is at 1400 on Wednesday 20th December 2023. Midwinter!
As usual, while we're live, we'll be available to everyone, then after we finish, the vid is locked down for members only. We'll have a quick round up of 2023, then, by members request, cover a few Jigs and Hornpipes. Most likely from Scots Guards Book 2.
1400 (Scotland Time) 21st December 2023
Hi all. November's Member's livestream will be at 2.30pm Scottish time on Wednesday 29th November 2023. As well as having a broken ankle, I'm full of the cold, so the good news is, in a departure from usual, I'll cut the speaking to a minimum. After our news and events, we'll cover a competition style March Strathspey and Reel on Practice Chanter. As soon as I'm out of plaster, we'll try and do more on pipes.
Tunes will all be from Scots Guards Book 1 and will be The Abercairney Highlanders, The Fiddler's Joy and Pretty Marion.... That should keep me quiet!
Please remember this goes out live, and anyone can watch. Once we're finished, it's locked down for members only, to access at any time
