• November 21 - SPBA Online Learning - Session #1

Teaching Fundamentals for Beginner Pipers & Drummers

1:00 – 3:00 pm

Who: this would be for all band executive, instructors and senior players who have responsibility for teaching, or who might have interest in teaching.

Format: this will be a Zoom presentation, with ample time for Q&A and discussion. It will include a breakout session for pipers and drummers to discuss specifics in their own areas.

Presenters: James MacHattie and Chris Coleman of the College of Piping in Prince Edward Island together have an enviable record in developing new pipers and drummers, and also pipe bands. They will be presenting their ideas and techniques for starting new players that will help all teachers of piping and drumming.

Thanks to our 2020 Instructors and students for a great summer camp via Zoom. We had a large number of students from many parts of North America, including pipers, drummers, Highland dance, fiddlers, guitar and bodhran players, smallpipers and whistle players!

It was a great mix of people and a lot of fun and learning took place, especially given the "learning at a distance" medium.

This was the 17th year of the school since it was re-formatted in 2004.
