CELTIC  THUNDER  BAGPIPE  SCHOOL

Don't Stop,  Thinking About Tomorrow,  Don't Stop,  It'll Soon Be Here,

It'll Be,  Better Than Before,  Yesterdays Gone,  Yesterdays Gone. . .

                                                                                                          -Fleetwood Mac

If  We're  Going  To  Share  The  "Gift"  -  Let's  Make  It  The  Best

          Celtic Thunder was created to share the "Gift" of bagpipe music and to have Fun with it.  To really have Fun with it

        you should be well armed with the knowledge and skills to the best that you can be.  The difference between a good

        Piper and an outstanding Piper is how much ammunition the Piper has in his or her bag and most important the

        quality of the skills and the knowledge within the Piper.

      The approach is; Have a "Can Do Attitude" - Listen and Do what the Instructor's teach you - and tell yourself that

      that you are going to be an "Outstanding Piper."

      Everything we do is for a reason; some may not understand why we're doing it at the time, but I promise you

      that it will come together and one day it will click and you'll realize that because of it you will be an "Outstanding

      Player" as opposed to an o.k. Player.  And because of this approach you will find yourself having much more Fun

      than the average Piper.

Building  A  PIPE-BAND  DRUM-LINE

     The Pipe-Line is progressing at a rapid rate and so now we add our focus to the Celtic Thunder Drum-Line.

     The goal is to Build a drum-line of High Quality;  And so now we are off and running.  Leading the charge will be

     the Drum-Majors of Celtic Thunder with lead tip Drum-Corporal Joey Hastings of the Youth Pipe-Band.

THE   CELTIC  THUNDER   CURRICULUM

     For the New Piper; We are structured to teach you the right way from the start.

     For The Piper who has been playing a while; We are structured to "Break" Any and All "Bad Habits"

     that you may have and Rebuild your skills to make you a Much Better Piper.

The Simple Rule of Thumb; The More You Practice, The Better You Become.
