Current uilleann piping clubs worldwide...

I’ve been working to compile as complete a list as possible of any and all uilleann piping clubs, societies, organizations etc etc. worldwide and would like your input. Specifically, I’m looking for organizations that have their own website so as to be linked to. Does anyone know of any glaring omissions in this list, and their current URL’s? I can’t possibly imagine I’ve gotten them all yet. Thanks!

Hmm, looks like you’ve barely scratched the surface, but its a start. Why would you want to duplicate the same lists as other sites already have?

I don’t know about barely scratching the surface, but one of the driving reasons is to compile an easily referenced list of only piping clubs. I still have plenty of other links for organizations related to piping or ITM in general. You may notice that no two sites links pages are exactly the same as well, so duplcation isn’t really a factor. Anyway, one more list never hurt anyone right? :slight_smile: Besides, many of the links listed on sites are now out of date or dead - another motivation to compile a current list. Thanks for the links so far.

Google might be helpful here, I suspect.

Been there - done that. :slight_smile: Not much help at all actually - unless I knew where to look…such as the Uilleann pipers’ club of Timbucktoo - lower east side branch. :wink: It’s the locations and wether or not they have an active club page up and running that I’m most interested in.

Best!

Perfect, Thanks Hans

Uilliam

uilliam, I can’t link to ya without a webpage. :wink: Thanks for the heads up though.

Sheffield Pipers Club. see www.howardmusic.co.uk

Brian, though we are not officially a club at this present date, this is the webpage for the Florida Uilleann Piper’s Resource Guide:

http://members.atlantic.net/~cavanagh/uilleann/

For any Flroida pipers out there who are not on the address list, but need help, this is a good site to check out and utilize…in addition to leaving your own address and bio.

I’ll post our new adress for you and Patrick as soon as i’ll get it, for we now are moving.

“We” means the Breton Pipers Association, the most important in France (for the number of pipers of course!), called “gan Ainm”.

Best wishes

Heartland Piper’s Club

Added the Kansas group, thanks. I’ve already got the Florida site listed there Joe under General Resources, but thanks again. And the does the Sheffield club have their own page? I’ve already got a link to Brian Howard’s workshop under pipe makers.

Details of the Sheffield club are accessed through Brians website by using the drop-down menu ‘Owners Club’.
