  • awsome job! :)

    my version of munster buttermilk sounds way different... i mean... like i am beginning to question if mine is the original...

  • excellent job! ^__^ where'd you buy your low whistle?.. it sounds nice..

  • oh i bought it online, on ebay

  • Nice! =D... do you mind if I ask what brand?

  • its a tony dixon low d :-)

  • thanx ^__^

  • "Munster Buttermilk" was one of the first tunes I learned and remains one of my favourites. Nice playing.

    Terry.

  • It's wonderful.

  • what kind of whistle is that?

  • great...bravo !

  • Another wonderful piece!

  • Nice finger work! I wonder, do you do anything to practice your breathing technique? That always looked a bit daunting to me. It's somehitng that always amazed me about whistle players since the lines in most traditional Irish pieces are fast and flowing, and there really isn't very much space to grab a breath! (On that note, have you ever thought about learning circular breathing like the didgeridoo players do? I think my flute playing might benefit from that...)

  • well i don't do anything specific to practice breathing, i just practice the tune a lot, and yeah, finding the place to get a breath is a little hard, as for circular breathing, it sounds really difficult to master

  • As an aspiring Didg and Whistle player who mastered circular breathing I find it impossible to use it while playing a whislte.

    Even if it was possible it would make the playing much more complicated than it already is. Because of the different air pressure needed for different notes. That kind of finesse is not possible while circular breathing.

  • To me, circular breathing is quite useless in Irish music. Playing without pausing seem nice but in Irish flute playing and tin whistle playing breathing is used as part of playing rhythm to make it better. Even uilleann pipes are unique as the chanter can be completely stopped by closing all the 8 hole and the chanter end, and pipers use this as part of their rhythmic structures making deliberate pauses. These make Irish music so special.

    But anyway, great job learning circular breathing.
