  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.

1. KHPB Classes

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!

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 cost for this two-month session is $150 (pro-rated if you join after week 1), which equals $15 per class...a real bargain!

The next sessions begin on Wednesday, 9/17/08 at St. Thomas Church in Medina (See a map):

Class Dates:  9/17, 9/24, 10/1, 10/8, 10/15, 10/29, 11/5, 11/12, 11/19, and 12/3 from 6:30 - 7:20pm.

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

If you are you are interested, please email us at khpb@khpb.org, and attend the first class meeting on September 17th at 6:15 pm. We look forward to seeing you!
