  Learn Piping or Drumming with KHPB

The Keith Highlanders Pipe Band offers structured classes every Wednesday from 6:30-7:20pm, and several band members are also available for private instruction. KHPB holds classes for beginning and intermediate piping and drumming students every Wednesday, 6:30 - 7:30pm, and we welcome new students of all ages, genders, races, and backgrounds--no experience necessary!

KHPB lessons are free to those 17 years of age and younger!  Younger students must still purchase a practice chanter or drum pad and sticks as well as a KHPB tutor book.

Beginning students will learn the basic techniques of piping or drumming and will be able to play simple tunes at the end of a ten-week session. Students will need a practice chanter or drum sticks/pad and these are available at a low cost from the instructors. Classes are held in ten-week sets, but new students may join at anytime. The full adult cost for this session is $150 (pro-rated if you join after week one), which equals $15 per class...a real bargain!

The next sessions begin on Wednesday, January 13th, 2010 at St. Thomas Church in Medina (See a map) and will run for ten weeks.

Adult Cost:   10 sessions x $15 = $150, plus piping chanter or drums sticks.

If you are you are interested, please email us at khpb@khpb.org, and attend the first class meeting on January 13th at 6:15 pm. We look forward to seeing you!
