I’ve just started getting a note out of my bagpipes, and this was just SO helpful. So far I’m only able to do the first exercise, but I’m slowly chipping away at it. Thanks Matt!
I grew up playing brass instruments. When I started on pipes, one of the hardest things I had to learn was separating my blowing from my playing.
Thank you Matt! I was waiting for a video like this from you!
Hope you enjoyed it!
Great help, I have a tendency to blow and forget to squeeze much, particularly on the top hand where squeezing and playing those notes!
Awesome exercise! Thanks Matt!
Glad you liked it!
Wish I'd had this exercise a year ago. I think I'll work through it anyway to see if it improves maybe some bad habit I've created in the muscle memory. Thx Matt.
Great video Matt I look forward to the next video 😊😊🍀🍀🍀👍👍👍🎄🎄🎄🎄🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks 👍
Thank you for this, Matt! You're always an inspiration to me!
I appreciate that!
@@MattWillisBagpiper Matt, maybe we can talk about some lessons.
As always , great help for beginners 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Glad to hear that!
@@MattWillisBagpiper Many people abandon the bagpipes because they do not understand how it works, and your videos are helping those beginners a lot.
Nice Video and a good Idea will try it tomorrow
and will suggest my band try it, when we're back
from our Christmas break.
Also nice to see my name in the list
Cheers.
Hello Leslie…hope all is going well for you…cheers !
Had your name been left off the list? I hope not! You've been one of my longest patrons!
@@MattWillisBagpiper not all, just showing off my pride in seeing my name there 😀
😮 thanks a lot !
Welcome!
Great video, Matt. Thank you! I’m in transition from PC to full set and this is the video I needed. What practice chanter do you have by the way?
That's a 2001 MacLellan cocobolo long chanter
Great instruction as usual Matt. I was wondering what software you use for making your staff pdf scores?
Finale
Have wanted to play GHP for years. A friend in England gifted me a set of R. G. Hardies that are about 70 years old, but in good shape. Do you set up pipes? If so, when I get ready I'd like to contact you. But, before then, I want to use your online lessons and then get private lessons. Which practice chanter should I get? Do you have a preference or recommendation?
Apologies for the delay, somehow I'm only seeing this comment now. For practice chanters, I very much like Gibson’s instruments www.gibsonbagpipesllc.com/shop?ref=njg0mtu
Their Long Poly is probably the best bang for the buck, but my favorite is their Cocobolo practice chanters
can you please teach modern music with bagpipes
Many modern melodies don't fit in he limited note range of the highland pipes, and the few that do fit aren't in the public domain, so I can't distribute music to them...
bro i'm a nepali bagpiper .Can yo give me a one bagpipe😢😢😢😢 i'm your big fannn😊😢😢
Hi Matt, I was really interested in running Hain bagpipes. I looked up online and I saying the website. I did send him an email and I also tried to call him however I’m not getting any response is he still in business? Let me know thanks
Probably best to contact him through Facebook facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063403454755
Matt thanks for this video its Perfect timing I just got my first set of pipes a month ago and I'm definitely struggling with the blow squeez play coordination. I did take your suggestion and bought a football to help build my arm squeeze strength while using my practice chanter. THANK YOU
You can do it!
I would like to have lessons if possible, we can do FaceTime
Send me an email at matt@mattpiper.com and I'll get you more info on lessons.
