Very great tune

FIRST COMMONT ( say if youre 2 or 3 or ...........)

Brilliant ... I personal see the pipes as an improvisation instrument. It could not have started out as a folk instrument any other way.

Please can i get music sheet

Good video😀, how big is the case?

Dear Mr Welch, first of all congratulations for your work. Have you recorded the pieces of music which are included in your book? Is there any digital album with your compositions? On your website it is not clear if any digital album is included if I buy the ebook. Many thanks for your attention. Marcio

Hi Matthew. I'm an Argentine piper and also teach pipes in a primary school in Buenos aires. The other day i taught the additive scale exercise to a group of 5th and 6th graders and they liked it. Also helped me to push them to improve their scale skills. Thank's a lot. I thought you would like to know this.

Great clip!

Yes, this really showed me something and I subscribed.

What reed do you use in the chanter ?

All of the information in your book and channel is incredible. Music theory is sadly ignored with pipers and I applaud you for explaining what we are never taught. We should at the very least know how we relate with music theory in order to be able to properly talk with other musicians.

great tune!!

Aw cliffhanger, I thought you were going to play them!

THANK YOU for this! My friends & I play the fiddle. We LOVE bagpipe music, but even with learning about pipe tuning & transposed instruments - it's been hard to interpret notation from sites like Ceol Sean. Is it really as simple as transcribing it all up a half step, for some of us who don't learn by ear? 💖💖💖💖💖

Sooooo would I do well to purchase a Jr-sized practice chanter? I've bought some for my kids, but never thought to use one for my own practice... would that potentially be of some benefit, to practice with a little chanter?

nice find! Guessing late 70s/early 80s maybe. Does the cassette tape have a date on the recording? I bought a late 50s set of Glens in Cocus wood including cocuswood chanter from an old firefighter friend who hasn't played since the late 70s for $600. He was never too serious about playing so they had low mileage. As I was leaving he said "oh yeah, here's the practice chanter that came with them. Both are in near mint condition. To top the deal off, they are in the old-fashioned wood carry case. Love them.

Which make of adjustable blowpipe do you use? It looks nice.

I have no idea why UA-cam recommended this video to me (I do occasionally play bagpipe related videos to annoy my husband because I love the sound and he doesn’t), but I enjoyed it 😊

I like your new post apocalyptic bagpipe set up, perfect for the change, alas, in climate. And I like your idea of creative decoration with colored tape, etc. Hope yr Piping Live performance went well. Good to see you back and posting.

Do you have PDFs for these scales and exercises that we could print off? I like to make up binders for instruction materials. Please and Thank you.

Bless you!!!

Big thanks, you just unlock something in me

Nice

Nice to see a cassette tape! 😁

"that belongs in a museum!"

Thanks for sharing… We would appreciate a longer video with the B-flat set up when you have a moment 😀. Thoughts on the “low” or “long” Ezeedrone reeds… are they working well for you? Photos of the chanter tuning (466?) and the position of your drones on the pins would very helpful. I just purchased an RJM B-flat chanter and it’s on its way over and I’m playing a set of the Naill vintage pipes… So you’re set up as a perfect test case for where I’d like to end up! (Ps… make/details on the sheep skin bag?) Thanks!

Very useful! Thanks

Nice video! Do you plan on exploring interval number and quality? (maj 2nd, maj 3rd, aug 4th, etc)

Pretty cool. Never really hear people talking about the instrument like this.

I have the identical Lawrie chanter that you bought on UA-cam and I got mine as a teenager in 1974 and still use it today.

Ive special ordered the hybrid blue bag without collars so I could tie them in, I like the setup in that its no maintenance and feels like a hide bag for the most part

Hye...pipers from malaysia.. Done subcribe..🇲🇾☺✌

Where can I find the sheet music for this?

mind blown

I thought you were going from 9 notes to 14 with the word "additive"

Really enjoying the education Doc! Not only the general music education but specifically applied to the GHB!

Excellent exercises! Thank you for sharing.

Do have these in manuscript and if so were could one get a copy!

Cool exercises!

Cheers, Matthew ! I was intrigued by your comments about vintage Lawrie practice chanters, and Michael Grey's advocacy of them as a means for developing technique. Within the last few years, I have acquired three vintage Lawrie practice chanters for purposes of accurately reenacting Scottish Regimental pipers from the late 19th Century, through WW1 and WW2. If I was going to portray piper's chanter practice in periods past, I needed vintage practice chanters. I quickly found that I preferred the vintage chanters for my own practice outside of reenacting. I did not have the vocabulary, or necessarily the knowledge, to understand why everything felt and sounded better, and executing embellishments improved upon using the vintage practice chanters, but that has been my experience. Until very recently, I hesitated to bring them to pipe band practice, on the idea that the vintage practice chanters were somehow not "legit". However, our band has resumed Zoom chanter practice, and last week I broke out a vintage Lawrie chanter, and got good comments on my playing from our Pipe Major. With your timely endorsement, I am likely to continue to use them !

nice

Hear! Hear! And good luck Matt with your "Dr Bagpipe" channel!

absolutely loving these videos! mixing my piping life and university composition life 🤯🤯

These videos are as interesting as they are impressive and beneficial. Please continue to promote this instrument in such a refreshing way....there is certainly no content like this on this platform.

Very nice content...

Completely excited!

That Lawrie was the staple at the "Scotch House" in SF. I believe you are a SF native? You've been there then. Where I got my Lawrie PC from.
