Complete starter kit-Practice Chanter and double dvd- £45
This is the most popular package.
Everything you need to know and everything you need to play properly is explained and demonstrated in these two dvd’s. All the fingering techniques and movements are shown to you in close up detail and played very slowly for easy understanding. The notation of how all these movements are written are explained in detail and I then play them for you to hear how they should sound.
Every new piper needs a Practice Chanter to learn all these techniques on and this package comes complete with the professional polypenco Practice Chanter which has a lovely mellow tone and is more or less, unbreakable.
You cannot get a more complete tuition course anywhere else
Double dvd- £14.85
Price includes shipping
Some people already have a Practice Chanter so, if you have one, all you need is the double dvd.
Polypenco Practice Chanter- £39
You may think it is time to get a better Practice Chanter or perhaps you did not realize that you need one to learn on. Whatever the reason, this is the ideal chanter for learners of all ages, particularly children as this is almost unbreakable. You do not need to worry if you drop it or if it rolls from a table onto the floor. Lovely mellow tone and easy to maintain.
Practice Pipes-The Economical Alternative- £135
Any piper will tell you that the transition between practice chanter and going onto the pipes can be quite difficult and frustrating because you have so many things to do at once. Blowing, squeezing, taking a breath, keeping the pressure constant and then you are expected to play a tune. The bagpipe reeds also take much more air so, the blowing technique is different. Now you can make this all much more easy with the Practice Pipes from almost day one as a learner. Very easy to play and to tune. Ideal for recording on their own or with other instruments. The lovely drone sounds add to the atmospheric music that you play.

Synthetic Drone Reeds
These reeds are so easy to get going. No Blowing in. Plug and play. After about five minutes playing, the chanter reed is settled and the drones tuned at this stage will not need tuning again. I recently played at a funeral and anyone who has done this knows you do not get much chance to tune up. I tuned up before the funeral, played for about five minutes, hung around for 45 minutes and had to play again. After about half a minute the chanter reed had warmed up and the pipes were perfectly in tune.
