Annual Collogue Report

The 2012 Annual Collogue of the LBPS proved to be as exciting a day as it had promised.

The morning's talks by Will Lamb, Mike Katz and David Taylor were stimulating and entertaining; a full report will be included in the December issue of Common Stock. The afternoon's entertainment consisted of performances on pipes and fiddle by a remarkable line-up of players assembled by Hamish Moore. Recordings and videos are now being edited  [currently around 15GB of files!]

Here for starters is a William Dixon tune given a 21st century make-over by Callum Armstrong and Pete Stewart.

 Since early this year I have been offering holiday workshops on any  aspect of pipe-making of your choice including Pipes manufacture and reed making.

If you have ever thought you would like some intensive one-to-one  tuition with a professional maker with 30 years experience in making Smallpipes/Border Pipes and Uillean Pipes, then this is your opportunity.
