THE BOOK
It has been over 40 years since John MacLellan’s superb ‘Piping Handbook’ was produced. In that time we have seen the introduction of synthetic bags and reeds and a greater demand for every level of piper to play on a professionally tuned instrument.
This ‘pipe-case sized’ book deals with the three main subjects which can affect a piper’s performance—bags, reeds and tuning. Bruce Campbell has spent a life time playing and teaching—it is all in this wee book along with an excellent paper given by the late Captain Andrew Pitkeathly at the Army Piping School on the tuning of pipes.
This book should be in every piper’s case.......
