Ohiopiper,

I understand small space acoustics. On Sunday I serve my church as a religious education instructor. Each week we start with a "Children's Chapel" service. The music director got piping scores for most of the hymms we use with the children. I accompany them with the practice chanter, as it provides a low enough level of music for the children to sing with, without deafening them. I have used the smallpipes in the larger room, on the occasion that we use it.

The hymns are a great source of practice for me, as it forces me to learn to read musical score.
