The piper in peacetime

Music societies

The way I categorise them for the purpose of visiting is as follows:  


General

       Recorded music

                  I could bring DVDs/records

       Recorded music and performances

                  I could bring DVDs/records and the bagpipe.


Classical 

      Recorded music

                    I could bring DVDs/records 

                    The session would demonstrate the classical form of the bagpipe as seen here.

      Recorded music and performances

                   I could bring DVDs/records and the bagpipe.

                  The session would demonstrate the classical form of the bagpipe as seen here.

According to interest, there would be the following components:


     History of the bagpipe and its numerous forms.

     Aspects of the bagpipe as seen elsewhere on this website.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Within some societies, the bagpipe might be rather too much for an entire session.  If that is the case for the reader, the first half could be devoted to the guitar.  It would include, according to interest:


If a performance is appropriate, it would involve:


        General music

        Early Spanish classical* music - Fernado Sor, Mateo Carcassi, Antonio Cano and Ferdinando Carulli.

        Flamenco music would form the greater part of this session according to interest.
