I like the way you teach, going straight to the tune. However my chanter doesn't play good like yours: I bought it many years ago and never used. Should I buy new reeds or e better chanter? How can I choose a good one? Please help, thank-you.
Hi. I made a video on getting a good sound from your practice chanter. See if this helps: ua-cam.com/video/k9r58OfX9AQ/v-deo.htmlsi=sXTRhrl3kjzkA_7t If it doesn't help, I can tell you that my practice chanter is a polypenco (plastic) McCallum Long chanter. www.hendersongroupltd.com/product/mccallum-long-poly-practice-chanter-with-imitation-ivory/ You can order it from many different vendors. In the USA I like to purchase from Henderson Imports in Traverse City, Michigan. And here is the reed I like to use in the McCallum Poly Chanter: www.hendersongroupltd.com/product/frazer-warnock-practice-chanter-reed/ But there are many other really good quality practice chanters available out there in the world. I'd say you don't want pay less than about $80 USD for a practice chanter. This helps ensure you get a good quality chanter. I hope this helps.
