This is awesome. I've been struggling with my birls for 25 years and this is incredibly helpful to clean up my technique. Thanks!

[@MattWillisBagpiper]

Glad it helped!

@@MattWillisBagpiper is there a specific book you start your students off with ?

[@MattWillisBagpiper]

Not a book per se, but instead, I use the same lesson materials that are included with the videos in my Basics Series: bit.ly/BasicsPipes

More than one pinky. I knew that was how pipers did this thing.

Ha! Didn't mean to reveal that in the thumbnail. ;)

Hi Matt. For me I have a hard time to do the Birl with out moving my B finger, it usually arches up and moves forward. I will give one of these a try.

@@MattWillisBagpiper Thank You Matt. This is what I need.

[@larixdecidua8099]

Hi Matt, thank you so much for all your helpful videos. I am pretty good at performing birls with the practice chanter, but when I try to play them on the full pipes they seldom come out as they should. I have been practicing for months and still I don't seem to improve much. Do you think it might be a posture problem? (I mean, the position of my hands/arms respect to the chanter?)

Do you have lessons for playing modern music for bagpipes
