  • Would you please do a vid with this tune but straight forward? No ornamentation. It's very fast for me, but I'd love to learn it. Thank You for all your vids, and Merry Christmas!

  • Hey Ryan. Do you have a sheet music fot this tune? I'm having problems reading your fingers on this one. :) I've been searchin on the net but found a different tune under the same name.

  • What kind of tin whistle is that? It sounds really nice. I have a brass D Feadóg and it seems to be very... ear piercing when i play high notes but yours doesn't seem to do that. It could just be me, though.

  • Thanks Ryan... I'm learning the Tin Whistle thanks to your videos

  • PHEW !!!!!!!!!! AMAZING

  • I play tin whistle and I love using your videos to decide which song to learn next... At the moment I am stumped at what to teach myself but I am content just to listen =) Love it!

  • am i suppose to learn from this ?

    i think u need play faster to yourself - if yo teach you teach

  • Excellent Ryan, you play tin whistle very well, and I appreciate the videos

    that you provide on youtube. I am Brazilian and it is very difficult to find

    someone who teaches whistle, and you have been a way I found to know

    this beautiful musical instrument. Could you help me, I have difficulties in making high notes on my whistle, I have a Waltons D. Thank you.

  • Your Amazing. Is there music note sheets for this??

  • Wow...Terrific! Thanks Ryan!

    Most do not have time to follow the fingers)

  • WoW ! that's amazing.. Great job ;)

  • Good job!

  • Comment removed

  • You do a great job on that reel, the Sally gardens is one of the most popular tunes, bet they are glad to see you turn up at a session....well done and thanks

  • I've been playing sally gardens that sounds nothing like this, how come yours is so different, and better ???

  • wow!! thats amazing! do you have the notes?

  • excellent!! Great job!! What key whistle is this in?

  • *facepalm*

    It's people like yourself, i.e Plastic Paddies; who give Ireland a bad name.

  • this isn't the sally gardens at all. what the hell?

  • There is the song "The Sally Gardens" and then the tune, a reel, by the same name.

  • woot

    :D i was taking tin whistle classes with brendan dolan at the irish center in long island city but havent had a chance to get to any recently, so hearing some good tunes - let alone from a Fordham gent! - well it warmed my heart. thank you.

  • .....i dont know what to say....as a woodwind player myself (i play a bit of tin whistle) i know that songs look a lot harder than they actually seem to be and once you've mastered the fingering its easy but....that speed and....amazing...masterpiece

    5/5 and favourited

  • Wow, Father this is amazing. I had no idea the skill you have had obtained in your soul. Excellent

  • If your fingers are rusty, I should be so lucky. Very impressive playing. Thanks for posting.

  • what key tin whistle is this?....it sounds amazing!....i think this is a key of D....

  • OMG awesome

  • I have played this on my low D whistle and I play it the slow air way, but I don't think I could play it this way!

  • :O im spechless for once

  • isn't the sally gardens an slow air??

    this is way too fast... but I think it's good because it swings because you play it :D

  • Theres two different songs with the same name

  • yeah, ones "The Sally Gardens" this song and the other is "Down By the Sally Gardens" or "The Maids of the Mourne" (the original tune, words are added that turn it into "Down by the sally gardens"

  • Sally gardens is a reel.

  • I think you may be thinking "Down By Sally Gardens". :D Hope that helps.

    From listening to this I think I may need to spruce up my version...lol!

  • Comment removed

  • Wow! To think, that's the song i just started working on...

  • i just learnt dat on my fiddle last week but u beat me hands down!!!!!

  • I love this tune - used to Irish dance to it! Hoping to start learning soon - have to get a whistle first! Come from a family of locally well known and respected traditional Irish musicans at at age 24 its a disgrace that I can't play already! lol!

  • god your good!!!!!

  • O.O i love you xD

  • aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

  • I think I heard this song in the movie "Braveheart". I don't know but it sounds very good.

  • I just ordered my tin whistle ^^ I always liked Irish music , that was a first reason the second reason why I bought one is because next september me and some friends while go hicking in the uk and I think it would be lovely to play while sitting somewhere in the irish or scottish open. I'll post a video then ^^ You play very nice btw. I'll try to get as good as you ^^

  • yeeeooo.

  • finally the irish version i keep getting the song version when i search it!!

  • oh man thats so cool.

    how long do you play the tin fluet? ^^

  • No, It's called Sally's Garden. I have the sheet music in front of me. But yeah, I have another version of it that's similar called Mason's Apron.

    Great job Ryan!!

  • Every Irish tune has several names. Even variations of the same name.

  • Sorry Ryan but you have your lines crossed the tune that you are playing in this video is called "The Masons Apron." You got big skills though, keep up the good work.

  • You are indeed wrong hippihoppo....this is Sally Gardens

  • im blown away

  • youre very good player . thanks.

  • Dude that was amazing. Do you have the tab for this, I would love it.

  • This isn't the same tune as Down by the Sally Gardens is it? I was expecting that tune, but I don't recognize this one.

  • I think it is.. just a little bit different.. but I might be wrong.

  • Different tune

  • Yea I know.. I looked for the sheet music after I posted that comment.. sorry! ;)

  • Class!! Next time your around Athlone drop into Seans in Athlone!!! By de way wat key z dat in??

  • you are just amazing! i viewed some of your videos and i' very impressed. post some more stuff plz.

  • What a great version. It's this version that sticks in my head. Made it much easier to learn the tune. Go figure. All that ornamentation etc. actually helps the base tune stick. Gotta be good. Thanks Ryan!

  • brilliant. irish americans are brilliant for never letting go of their culture.

  • that's very good! well done!

  • OMG, you're amazing ! Really ! I've learned Wild Rover now but gosh, i would never be able to learn to play like this ! .. Love it !

  • Oh!You are so excellent that I can't use words to express!I'm a chinese boy ,I love Irish whistle!I think you can be my a good teacher!And,you are my idol!

  • Meganmurphy1212 has a video also named Sally Gardens that I saw on your Fordham Group Site last year and its still out there. It sounds nothing like what you play here. What's up? Did MeganMurphy1212 mess up the song or what??? I like both of them, but the other is played much slower and differently. Sign me Curious.

  • simplement ... fantàstic

  • Ryan is a total tin-whistle-STUD. Love it. Now, let me get back to my own rehersal of "Mary had a Little Lamb" and "Old McDonald".

  • you still sound pretty good.

  • Thanks God you're back!!!!

  • ít looks like u talk with ur whistle that's soo cool!!! real man!!! super!!

  • Great to see that your back!

  • That is amazing! I wish I could play like that.

    So glad you're posting again

  • Hi, Ryan! Your humility is so touching! And you also encouraged me to buy a tin whistle, which I have practiced enough to raise complaints from my wife. Ah, and you also encouraged my two year old to blow on the tin whistle :)

  • Love it, just love it!

    Have a great weekend. Peace. God bless. JM

  • Very happy to see a new video by you! You are awesome!

  • bout time u got a new video

  • a bit rusty.... yeah right!!!! nice video.... thanks for posting... :)

  • Believe me Ryan, you have definitely done that tune justice! I'm not a big fan of the tune as I feel that it has gotten to the 'hackneyed' stage (though I uploaded a banjo video of it recently). But I really enjoyed that rendition and might work on a few variations like the ones you've put in (I won't carbon copy them, don't worry!!).

  • Very good! Thanks

  • amazing..thanks

  • Wow. You play so very well and I'm so glad that you're back. Thank you for sharing your music and thank you for your instructional videos. It's very much appreciated.

  • Ryan, Thanks for sharing one of God's gifts with us. I bought a tin whistle several years ago and never touched it until I found your video. Now I am playing it everyday. Thanks again.
