In English. The National Piping Centre Piobaireachd Tutor Book. This book replaces the College of Piping Piobaireachd Tutor 4.This book sets out the specaliased embellishments required to play piobaireachd, together with tunes which are graded in order of difficulty. A step-by-step guide as taught by the National Piping Centre in Scotland. You will learn the piobaireachd movements and embellishments that are found in the tune you are working on. Each embellishment has a full written explanation, as well as clear audio demonstations, available here: After working on the embellishments, you will learn to play the theme and the suceeding variations.You will also discover more about tune structure and classification. The structure of each piobaireachd is explained in the chapter where the tune appears and there is also an appendix with more detail on structure and classification. Through understanding the structure, you will be able to phrase the melody correctly and it also makes it easier to remember. Information on canntairneachd (the oral tradition of piobaireachd) is also included in this book. The canntairneachd version of each embellishment is explained and there is also a score of the tune with both staff and canntairneachd notation. The audo files have sung excerpts from the tunes in canntairneachd. Piobaireachd (which can also be spelt pibroch) is a Gaelic word which literally means piping. Its roots lie deep in the musical culture of the Highlands of Scotland and is closely associated with the Gaelic language, the beautiful and expressive melodies of Gaelic song and the Highland harp tradition. Individual tunes consist of theme and variations, which can become more complex as the piobaireachd progresses. The length can vary from five minutes to about twenty minutes.The piobaireachd tradition in Scotland is rich and varied and tunes were often passed down through the generations using a form of singing called canntaireachd. The notation is introduced in this book. Reflecting the rich history of the Highlands, many of the tunes have tales and events associated with them - gatherings, battles, births and deaths. Playing piobaireachd is a wonderful way to enjoy a greater insight into the culture of the Highlands.Piobaireachd is also known as Ceol Mor, which means big or great music. The tunes give more scope for individual interpretation than light music and while Ppiobaireach can be a challenge, it also offers great music reward for pipers.
Piobaireachd Fingerwork takes exactly the same approach as its predecessor, breaking the difficult technique of piobaireachd into bite-size morsels that are understandable and that come together into complete movements.There are 118 exercises and five complete piobaireachds to help you put the exercises into practice. All are recorded into mp3 files that are easily downloaded from a web location specified in the book.The book deals not only with piobaireachd movements, it also describes the most common piobaireachd variations (dithis, siubhal, breabach, etc) and how they have been traditionally played.One whole chapter is devoted to how to read scores as printed in the Piobaireachd Society and Kilberry collections. Another details the intricacies of canntaireachd, the pipers’ musical language.Piobaireachd Fingerwork even addresses movements as they were published well before the Piobaireachd Society, in the works of Angus Mackay, Donald MacDonald and others.If you’ve always wanted to try piobaireachd, or if you want to improve your fundamentals in a logical, proven, and easy-to-understand method, this is your chance!
