This tutor book has been designed to help the piper, new to the bagpipe, make the transition to being able to compete in a Grade 5 solo piping contest, and/or play in a pipe band.
Students will develop their ability to play the technical requirements needed for this level and increase their speed and fingering dexterity, pitch their pipe chanter and tune their drones to Low A, produce a good, steady tone on their bagpipe, maintain a steady tempo, complete the ear training designated for this level, reproduce more complex time and rhythm exercises, and improve their ability at writing out (copying) bagpipe music.
The corresponding CD is included.
