Bagpipers
- Show all products/services availableAbout: For the last ten years, a small group of bagpipers has been meeting, practicing and playing at the St John’s Episcopal Church in Ocean Springs. Several of us are veterans of police, fire and military services in Canada, New Zealand and the USA, so the bagpipe calls to all of us. It is this core that has begun to accept general piping performances.
Our members have been featured at police funerals, fire and police academy graduations, weddings, festivals, parades and graveside performances in both individual and group ensembles. We provide free lessons for beginner and advanced pipers. Several special workshops throughout the year focus on bagpipe maintenance, reed management and techniques.
We also have a small group that works on Ceol Mor, better known as Piobaireachd (pronounced “Pea-brok”), the ancient classical music of the Great Highland Bagpipe.
