The sleeping tune (Gillies)

[MsOneiroi77]

beautiful Scottish tune there 

[harshdebate]

Fantastic! LOVELY! Beautiful! Augh - i wish i could play that! =]

[DMLDisciple]

Actually i have noticed that Wolfstone live does their songs in a key lower then the key they do their songs in on their cd's. They have done it on several songs like: Cleveland park, Gillies, Erin, etc. So my mistake, I was going off of the key they played Gillies in on their cd.

[DMLDisciple]

Also I love how you used the Guitar as a backing instrument in your version of Gilles.

[DMLDisciple]

The original key that that song is in is the key of "B." I have a B-Flat Whistle and Gillies is in a key about a sliver of the key of B-Flat higher. But Gillies is a song that sounds awesome in a low key.

[d1v4dPwnz]

why does he move his left pinky as if it was a note cover?

[JaredMister]

@d1v4dPwnz: the left pinky acts as a timing device

[piobrach]

hey, do you have any accompanying music? i have been asked to play the piano for this with my pipe band. even what the guitar played would be cool! what a great performance by the way! it is such a moving tune.

This Is a good song is... is... is... is a good song to writhe!

[slaintedan]

Brilliant! Very very well done!!!

[Octospidr]

Wonderfully well done. Thank you.

I try to whistle and I find this inspirational.

[DudelsackOnline]

Respect ! Nice ornamentation and scottish guitar !

[tskent87]

Nice tone and well playing, good job!!!By the way, i like this instrument sound!!! Where can i buy it!!! I live in MALAYSIA.

[abraxas123]

Thank you! I play a Chieftain Low D V3 in this video. Since you live in Malaysia, you probably have to get it from an online store.

[abraxas123]

try kerrywhistles(dot)com, hobgoblin(dot)com or larkinthemorning(dot)com.

[mossyslopes]

@abraxas123

I enjoy coming back to listen to this tune often , beautifully played .

Thank you for teaching me how to play this tune !

[emwhistle]

My whistle is a D also. Thanks I will have a look at your copy of the music and see if it is the same

[abraxas123]

When you have learned the song, you can post it as a video response : )

[emwhistle]

that is great! I have tried playing that before but really struggled. Looking at your fingering I think I had different music for it. Any chance I could get a copy of the music you used? Thanks

[abraxas123]

Thank you! What is the key of your whistle? I play it on a D whistle here. The fingering is identical to how you would play it on an A whistle, as the original track was played on one. The key is Bmin on the A whistle. A copy of the music is in my description. The link.

[emwhistle]

yes that is the same music I have for it, must be my bad playing that makes it sound nothing like :)

[chansherly212]

very very nice! the guitar adds a great accompaniment, lovely sound,, hmm, maybe in the future, if i ever need a guitarist would you care to join me?

[abraxas123]

Maybe I will. Give me a shout if you are working on something new, where accompaniment is needed.

[3rdDerivative]

That was beautiful...I have a new favorite song :)

[abraxas123]

Glad you like it : )

Maybe i will post a less flawed version on my Copley flute some day.

[kevo32a]

very nice. please keep it up!
