I'm just starting out on the chanter and find your uploads really inspiring :) I hope one day that I can play as well as you.

he inspired me enough to practice again
more than a year ago...and I'm so much better than i was,"stevies first bar" was the tune that caught my ear.....and it led to
a whole universe of kick ass music...
your B-52 set is really good dude...
bravo to you...and 5***** for Ian!

Not bad. Wee bit stilted and stiff. Need to hit the upbeats a wee bit more. Just needs to be 'let loose' a wee bit more. just my two cents worth :-)

Thank you very much :)

i think it is in one of Seamus MacNeill's books. Maybe his book one?

Hey Ian...where did you get the music for Donald Ross? I've searched in vain for that tune. Great to see you back!!
Nice to have you posting videos again. =]
To be honest Ian is one of the main reason I am as good today as I am. Sounding awesome. =]

How long have you been playing? I'm going to start out very soonand buy my first practice chanter. Do you have any tips for me? How do you get a sound out of the chanter? is it difficult? You are very good

i have been playing for 17 years... make sure you buy a practice chanter from a reputable dealer, and maker... i like gibsons, naills, and tru-tones... also you should invest in a long-chanter as opposed to a short one. spend a little money on yourself and buy something of worth which will make it all worthwhile for you to practice = good tone and enjoyable to listen to. don't let your practice time be a dreaded occasion, enjoy it. however, when you start off, practice everything slowly

Thanks for posting. I really enjoyed that. I have to say, for me, you are the standard-bearer for great sounding pipe music on the chanter. Besides the sheer enjoyment of hearing you play, I hope to one day play as well.
Cheers,
Bud
