Practice to Performance™

An extraordinary musical creation by renowned bagpipe composer and Director of the world champion youth band at Haileybury College, Lincoln Hilton. Available to only the first 200 pipers ready to join the Founders Club, this instrument redefines excellence and brings Practice to Performance™.

This is the first chanter ever designed to engineering standards specifically to be tuned to equal temperament, setting it apart from traditional practice chanters. Whether you're practising or performing, this innovation elevates your music to new heights, allowing you to seamlessly play with any instrument in an ensemble, symphony or covers for YouTube videos.

With only 200 units handcrafted from helicopter-grade aluminium and genuine solid brass parts, this limited release is your exclusive opportunity to own a chanter that combines cutting-edge engineering with superior craftsmanship. Lincoln Hilton’s revolutionary mountain reed seat, and split mouth piece design aids in prevention of water pooling, ensuring flawless play every time, while custom designed medical-grade silicone o-rings providing a secure fit that promises years of exceptional use.

"I always wondered, why do we practice on out-of-tune, squeaky, unstable chanters? I’d often find myself doing everything I could with reed manipulation and taping holes to get chanters remotely in tune. Often, the problems were consistent with sharp High G’s, flat F’s and C’s ubiquitous across most chanters. If practice is meant to refine the ear and improve playing, why not elevate the instrument itself? Surely, we can do better and get instruments closer in tune without completely altering every hole or relying on that “one special reed” that happens to work. That’s why I designed the Hilton Chanter™—to bridge the gap between practice and performance. It’s the first chanter specifically tuned to an actual key, following equal temperament like a piano, while also being visually crafted to seamlessly integrate into an orchestra. The Hilton Chanter™ also tackles the age-old issues of water clogging in the reed and mitigates the persistent squeals that plague most standard chanters. It is a standalone instrument that is by far the most consistently in-tune chanter that I have played to date across multiple reeds. Blending modern materials with a nod to traditional wooden chanters, including a protected wooden bell shape designed to add brightness to the overall sound, the Hilton Chanter™ is as functional as it is revolutionary.”

Information:

• The pre-sale has concluded and this item is now for sale and shipping immediately after purchase.

• All orders require signature on delivery.

• Every reed is different, so we recommend minor adjustments using beeswax to fill in holes and flatten notes if necessary.

• For the best, most in-tune results, we recommend using the reed that comes with the chanter.

• Product images reflect a prototype. The delivered product may have slight visual differences due to enhancements made for optimal performance to the final design.

• *Equal temperament tuning allows the Hilton Chanter™ to harmonize seamlessly with any instrument tuned to standard Western pitches. Instruments such as piano, guitar, synthesiser, flute, clarinet, saxophone, oboe, bassoon, trumpet, trombone, french horn, tuba, violin, viola, cello, and double bass are all commonly tuned to equal temperament. Player skill level, reed setup, altitude of location, weather are variable factors which can affect the tuning.

• **Reeds and blowing pressure can cause slight variability in the tuning of the overall scale.
