I'm busy editing lesson 6 at the moment and starting recording lesson 7 last night, so I hope to have them up soon! Please keep the feedback coming, especially anything about your experience of learning online like this!<BR/>:)<BR/>VickiSmallpiperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15196265798404330992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9908219.post-1149428209108606542006-06-04T14:36:00.000+01:002006-06-04T14:36:00.000+01:00Hi. Vicki, I must congratulate you on your project...Hi. Vicki, <BR/><BR/>I must congratulate you on your project to produce an on-line tutor for the small pipes. I had wanted to learn for some time but lacked the confidence to go out and buy a set because of the cost involved. As a result of your web site, in May, I purchased a set in 'A' from Dunfion Bagpipes on Arran and I'm pleasently suprised at my progress. As I read music the theory side hasn't given me any problems and I can sucessfully sight read simple tunes. <BR/>I would like to make one comment which relates to your published tunes. Can you show suggested ornamentations as it would help me and perhaps others on what is suitable for the small pipes. I am also using a GHB tutor but some of the ornanemtations particularly using the low 'G', because of the stretch, are quite difficult. <BR/>On a technique matter, I note that most players have the drones resting on their right arm. No matter how I try to sit and adjust the instrument the drones constantly contact the top of the bellows. Is there something I am doing wrong? <BR/><BR/>RodAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9908219.post-1148403353777314962006-05-23T17:55:00.000+01:002006-05-23T17:55:00.000+01:00Hi, Vicki!!Another small error, so small that you ...Hi, Vicki!!<BR/><BR/>Another small error, so small that you may not want to mess with it. In the Index to Tunes in the first section, you have the tune, "Colin's Cattle" listed as being on Page 26 when it is actually on Page 23 at the end of Lesson Five.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>KevinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9908219.post-1148400640769059262006-05-23T17:10:00.000+01:002006-05-23T17:10:00.000+01:00Hello!There was a numbering issue with the pdf tha...Hello!<BR/>There was a numbering issue with the pdf that I've fixed now, so if you've already downloaded the file, grab it again!
