    You have purchased one of the most professional and popular books for learning the bagpipes. It includes many famous and traditional melodies (Amazing Grace, Happy Birthday, Highroad to Gairloch, Scotland the Brave, Green Hills of Tyrol, etc.), all the finger techniques, and in contrast to other bagpipe books it has many exercises that you will need to learn the bagpipes successfully.
    
    The book is suitable for absolute beginners all the way to intermediate pipers. You can study on your own or use it as a classroom companion book. In 28 easy-to-understand lessons, you will find crystal-clear instructions on how to play the bagpipes from scratch. This book is also used for training purposes by many professional bands and bagpipe schools. Its aim is to give the student a technically and musically solid foundation and expert guidance on the route to becoming an accomplished piper.
    
    The Bagpipe Tutorial App, which is available from your app store, is perfectly matched to the Bagpipe Tutorial book. Besides the tunes in the book, it contains more than 250 exercise videos covering all the fingering techniques, embellishments and grace notes that you will need in bagpipe playing. The information is in soundtracks and visual displays, with close-ups of the chanter fingerings at different speeds to help you learn them more easily.
    
    You will also need a practice chanter to train your finger technique and your first songs. What you learn will only be transferred to the big set of bagpipes after a couple of months. The practice chanter will accompany you all through your life with the bagpipes. You will learn the fingering of new tunes on the chanter and continuously improve your fingering technique with it.
    
    This book, a milestone in the teaching of the Scottish bagpipes, will help beginners and intermediate players to achieve rapid success. It is a professional educational tool for playing and understanding the bagpipes.

    Crime is the dark side of civilisation.  The under belly of human failing and greed. 
    Within societies, down through the ages, it has appropriated its rules and taken what it wants by foul and unfair means. 
    ‘Crime Classics’ examines all manner of crimes and murders from the past.  It carefully recreates the complete crime through thorough and pains-taking research. The cases range from the assassinations of Lincoln and Julius Caesar to the more obscure, such as Bathsheba Spooner, who killed her husband Joshua in 1778 and became the first woman tried and executed in America. 
    Your host each week, is Mr. Thomas Hyland — ‘connoisseur of crime, student of violence, and teller of murders’ and played by Lou Merrill.
