Dunbar Child’s Size Poly Practice Chanter

Katia de Peyer $ 71.10
Dunbar Child's Size Polypenco Practice Chanter The Dunbar Child's Size Practice Chanter is the most popular of the 2 children's practice chanters we offer. The Dunbar children's chanter is a 3/4 length with standard note hole spacing. This makes it easier for an instructor--or mom, dad, older brother or sister-- to tune with the student. The standard note spacing also helps the beginning piper to adjust to standard bagpipe fingering.  All practice chanters include a reed. Features of the Dunbar Children's Poly Practice Chanter: Overall length 15.25" Durable Polypenco construction Standard note hole spacing Countersunk holes Hempless O-ring seal Includes 1 reed Note:  Dunbar Children's Practice Chanters are especially compatible with Walsh and Warnock practice chanters. Compare the Dunbar Child's Size Practice Chanter with another children's chanter: The other option is made by McCallum. This model is actually longer overall than the other Child size, however the finger spread is more similar to a "D" chanter, making the note holes closer together. Although not impossible, it is more difficult to match the pitch of the chanter due to the note hole configuration.

About the Author

About the Author

Katia de Peyer’s first book Dancing with MySelf, Sensuous Exercises for Body, Mind and Spirit (Nucleus Publications, 1991; La Source Press, 2026) introduced her method of inner-centering through movement, hailed by Diane von Furstenberg as a whole new attitude about exercising. Her second book Enjoy Your Healing Power (La Source Press, 2025) is an intuitive, helpful guide for developing our healing power.  A ballet dancer born in Paris who lived in Spain to further her studies in flamenco, Katia moved to New York in the late sixties to start a successful career as a personal trainer. There she met the virtuoso clarinettist Gervase de Peyer in 1976.  She and Gervase married in 1980 and lived for two decades in the US and then in the UK until Gervase’s death in 2017.  Katia continues her work as a writer and healer in London and New York.
