- Alistair Boyle Presentation

- Craig Munro Presentation
Ozscot Bagpipes Supplies held a “Piping and Drumming workshop not to be missed” in Perth Australia on 2nd May 2009 in a packed out Dianella Community Centre.
The workshop lecturers were P/M Craig Munro, Master Craftsman at Wallace Bagpipes and Alistair Boyle, Drum Major of the Grade 1 Australia Highlanders Pipe Band.
Craig’s lecture entitled “Understand and Appreciate Your Bagpipes” gives a detailed insight into a bagpipes journey from the very first African Blackwood seeds being planted through to harvesting and manufacturing stage.
Alistair presented a workshop on all aspects of Pipe Band drumming including tuning, score construction and the set up of voiced/multiple pitched tenor drums that you hear in today’s top pipe band mid-sections.
Feedback from the workshop was that this was one of the most constructive and informative workshops that Perth has ever seen. Both lecturers are masters in their field and want to pass on their knowledge to the pipe band world.
