Chanters

Double reeds are used with both conical- and parallel-bored chanters while single reeds are generally (although not exclusively) limited to parallel-bored chanters.

In general, double-reed chanters are found in pipes of Western Europe while single-reed chanters appear in most other regions.

We have a robust musical ministry with beautiful chanting from our choir and chanters, as well as a vibrant OPA ministry, which serves our seniors.

Some of the performers will include: Leona Lewis, the National Symphony Orchestra led by Jack Everly, U.S. Army Chorus and Army Voices, U.S. Navy Band Sea Chanters, Soldiers' Chorus, U.S. Air Force Singing Sergeants.

Almost all bagpipes have at least one chanter; some pipes have two chanters, particularly those in North Africa, the Balkans in Southern Europe, and Southwest Asia.
