The Rory O’Moore School of Pipes and Drums is an educational organization whose goal is to foster the teaching and learning of the “Great Highland Bagpipe” as well as the snare, tenor, and bass drums
Open Enrollment
Student enrollment and band membership is open to any person of any age that has an interest in bagpipes or drums. No prior experience is necessary to begin lessons at the school.
Practice chanters, drum pads and sticks are available for purchase, and advanced instruction is also available.
For those under 10 years of age, we ask that the parent(s) accompany the new member to practice sessions and rehearsals.
Practices: Tuesday evenings (Sessions start at 7:00 PM and last 2-3 hours)
Please feel free to stop by any Monday or Tuesday night to speak to a member of the band. It is a good idea to contact us first to make sure practice has not been cancelled for inclement weather or other reasons.
You can also call our Band Director, Matt Wood, at 201-230-0907.
