Join us for the first annual Piper's Retreat adjacent to Washington DC, in which smallpipers will gather to share music and continue spreading awareness of the lesser known bagpipes. Dance music will be a central focus of the weekend, and we will not have FORMAL instruction, but rather a shared format taught by students themselves who have different forms of enrichment from their gathering experiences and stylistic preferences.
Most of the Scottish smallpiping will occur in A, but D chanters and C chanters will likely make an appearance; similarly, most of the Northumbrian piping will occur in F and/or D.
Other instruments welcome and encouraged!
