![]() ![]() Interested in playing the pipes or drums? The Celtic Cross band is looking for experienced pipers as well as anyone interested in the learning the art. The teaching sessions are one hour weekly, usually of Thursday evenings prior to the bands standard practice sessions. A nominal weekly fee is charged. Beginners start with a practice chanter to learn the fundamental rudiments and basic tunes. Usually it takes about 3-6 months before students progress to the bagpipes themselves. Student drummers are also welcome for either snare, bass or tom-tom's. Practice times are similar to those for the pipers noted above. The band rehearsals are held at the Mill Plain Fire Department, located at 54 Mill Plain Road, in Danbury, CT We usually meet every Thursday from 7:00 - 10:00 pm. Stop by and see what it's all about. Please contact Don Hicks at 860-309-3783 or by email, piperdon96@yahoo.com to confirm our rehearsal schedule. Visitors are welcome. |
