Our organization is dedicated to furthering Celtic arts and traditions of piping and drumming by performances, competitions, instruction, and education. We enjoy our hobby and we are delighted to have the support of our family and friends at rehearsals and on the road to competitions!
We offer two options to learn bagpipes or Scottish drumming;
First – Group lessons at our regular rehearsal location are $10 a lesson. Bagpipe students are asked to purchase a practice chanter (approx. $85). Snare drumming students a practice pad and drum sticks (approx. $70). Tenor and bass drumming students must purchase padded mallets (approx. $65). The piping and drumming instructors will advise you on what to purchase and they will suggest a reliable source.
Second – Private instruction with one of our advanced players. Days and time as well as cost ($20 to $30 per lesson) varies by instructor. Again, there is the cost for the practice chanter, practice pad and sticks as shared above.
Our regular rehearsals are on Sunday afternoons at Highlands Latin School (10901 Shelbyville Rd, Louisville, KY 40243) and new student lessons are offered from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. with advanced players rehearsing from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Dates and times are always subject to change. This is especially true during the highland game competition season May through September. Please contact us at [email protected] for our practice schedule.
