In learning to play the Bagpipes, the Pupil must commence with the Practising Chanter,the fingering of
which is shown in the scale at the
beginning of this booh. After having mastered the scale the following
exercises should be learned,
lifting the fingers high in making the principal notes which enables the player*
to make the notes bard and distinct. The grace notes introduced in exercises N'l? 2. 3. 4. are made by a
slight movement of the fingers, time not allowing them to be raised up as in making the principal notes.

After
having learned to play a few tunes on the chanter, the pupil
may then commence to learn the blow_
ing of the Pipes. First, place the thumb and the first two fingers of the left hand on the Chanter fas in
.sounding E,) and then place the blowpipe into the mouth (taking care not to grip it hard with the teeth)
Grip the stock (the lowest joint) of the Bass drone with the right hand and then blow into the Bag, and when
full place it under the left arm. The arm must not be
kept too firm on the bag; and when drawing breath,
press the arm on the Bag so as to keep up the current of wind the same as when
and so on,
blowing into the Bag;
alternately blowing and pressing the Bag. The blowing of the Pipe must be steady and uniform,
iind with the
longest breath conveniently possible. The strength of the breath ought to be such as keep the
reeds in the same
strength of sound, quite independent of the assistance of the arm. The pressure of the
63
which holds the
arm
bag while the breath rests must be so as to keep the reeds in the same strength of
sound as the breath, for if the least difference is perceived, it is a blemish. The motion of the arm must
also be gentle and gradual as to be hardly perceived. It is better to stop two Drones until such time
so
as the
pupil has had sufficient practice to enable him to keep the Pipes going steadily.The Drones should
be tuned to E on the chanter
proving if they are correctly tuned by sounding the low A with which they
will be in unison if
correctly tuned, and if the chanter reed is fitted correctly into the chanter. Ifthe drones
require to be tuned farther up to suit high A, then the chanter reed is too flat; if the Drones require to tune
farther down to suit high A, then the reed is too
sharp. To make the chanter reed sound sharp, put it farther
into the chanter. If the reed is
sharp on the top of the chanter, raise it up a little. If the drones tune too far
out, lengthen the tongue of the reeds by
pushing back the tuning thread; if they tune too far down, shorten the
tongue of the reeds which makes them sharper.
DIRECTIONS FOR KEEPING THE BAG TIGHT.
Take off the and cork
cover
the stocks, then put into the bag by the chanter stock a small quantity of la¬
up
rd; milk warm, then rub the bag between the hands before a slow fire to make the lard adhere; when cold, clean
out the stocks of any lard that may have got into them.
