    B B C Northern Ireland Learning musical traditions KS4 music - television teacher's notes Programme 1 The Pipe Band “All for One” Broadcast Dates Programmes are broadcast on BBC 2 in Northern Ireland on Thursday mornings from 10.50 - 11.20am. Programme Title Broadcast Date 1 The Pipe Band 9th November 2 The Harp 16th November 3 The Metrical Psalm 23rd November 4 The Uilleann Pipes 30th November Programme 1 – The Pipe Band By Samuel Baillie Learning Objectives: At the end of the programme pupils will have: • Developed an awareness of the extent of the pipe band tradition in Northern Ireland and its strong community links and social function. • Learned about its separate musical sections and the importance of teamwork. • Become acquainted with Piobaireachd (Pibroch – pronounced “pibrock”), the ancient music of the Scottish Highland Bagpipe. • Gained an understanding of the complexities of the structure and tuning of the instrument. About the Programme This programme provides us with a close and personal view of the complexities and commitment of what it is like to be involved in pipe bands. The main thrust is the competitive edge of playing in bands and the importance of working as a team. The development of pipe bands and their contribution to the social fabric of local communities is illustrated but this is set beside the need for highly developed technical skill and a full understanding of the component parts of the bagpipe as an instrument, which is essential to obtain good sound. People on the programme emphasise this aspect of their enjoyment of pipe bands and appear to relish the challenge of getting it “just right” for the moment of performance.

  • Book 2 of the Structured Learning Guide of the Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association
    SECOND EDITION 1993 PREFACE It is with very real pleasure that I introduce Book 2 of the Structured learning Guide of The Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association. The growing international popularity of Book 1 in the series is positive proof of the acceptance of the clear concise teaching methods being used in the education programme now introduced. Pipe band enthusiasts all over the world are due a debt of gratitude to the members of the team of diligent, talented personnel who have created and presented this comprehensive and imaginative learning aid. This debt will be amply repaid by the conscientious use of Books 1 and 2 and by the subsequent attainment of a higher standard of performance of Pipe Band Music. E. Sturgeon PRESIDENT - 1 INTRODUCTION The Music Board of the Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association is delighted to present Book 2 in the Structured Learning series which covers the revised curriculum of the Intermediate Certificate course. We believe that this second publication provides a well balanced and coherent framework of learning material against which students can further develop their musical competence in piping and drumming. The successful presentation format which was established in Book 1 has been continued and built upon to ensure continuity of the learning process. It also maintains the capability of the material for use in a distance learning mode where the student has limited or perhaps no access to formal instruction. A key objective of the Music Board is to offer musical education of the highest quality and to support this by the provision of appropriate learning resource material which will be available to the membership of the Association and to the many Affiliated Associations throughout the World.
