Re: Tin Whistle - Concerning Hobbits - Howard Shore

[thewriter2993]

I love the way this piece sounds on my C whistle.

[ravenwitchfire]

excellent playing, i'm trying to learn this!! not doing to bad, any chance you could tell us the fingering i can't read a stitch of music many thanks keep posting its fab xxx

[Yz16000]

Thanks for your video, i've learned this song with it, in 40 min !

[JollyJont]

is it me or does concerning hobbits sound a bit like "titanic theme" around 0:22?

[mohawkman92]

By any chance do you have the tabs? It would be verry nice if you can put a link in the description. Tanks :) ^^

[Purnizzle]

i think the video is out of sync, if you pause at 24 seconds it's making a high pitch noise with all fingers down..

[Noverus]

@Purnizzle I'm Afraid, but you wrong.

The Videos in which you see me and/or my fingers, are not edited (Recorded with my Logitech Webcam and directly uploaded ): They cannot be out of sync.

I've played in this particular video the High D with all Fingers down ... and yes some people would say that's wrong playing.. ;)

[Purnizzle]

@Noverus Oh my apologies. Because i was trying to learn how to play it from this video, i got it all the way up to that point then ii got confused because all fingers down on mine makes a lower noise and doesn't sound right. so i'm stuck there :) but year sorry about that

[Noverus]

@Purnizzle

No Problem at all.

I've got several Tin Whistle in my collection and it depends on the model. Some will sound almost the same if you play an high D as in the video (x x x x x x) or if you play like in most books lectured (o x x x x x), and other Model will have a wide variation in tune. You can assume, that I've learned the dirty/lazy way of playing the High D ;)

If you stuck: Send me an recording of your playing and maybe I can help.

This is the simple notes, I'm sure you can make it true by ear.

(Capitals are high) Sorry have no idea how to write 'tabs'. Probably time I learnt XD

[Kyrcmaille]

One of the better natural performances I've heard on here. One correction though, the song is actually called In Dreams. Look up the actual score and sheet music.

[AliceCullenIAm]

lol. I just learned half of this song by watching your fingers and writing the tabs.

[Silversheid]

beatiful)

can you give the notes please!? :D!!

[yiartes]

can you give the notes please!? :D!!

[yiartes]

hermoso xD

[BearsNLions]

Do you play the upper D with all holes closed? I know you can do it like that but i cant ^_^ (Just wondered cause i'm writing down the notes :D )

[marcelopf85]

It's Lord of the Rings and Titanic!! Poor

[DauwXelfje]

@marcelopf85 Indeed, I taw the same xD!!!!!!!!!!!

[leafsfan234]

im sry but your fingerings are wrong

[laughablehamster]

i lietterally picked up the tin whistle today and i learned that tune off you xD

[BadWhistle]

Thankyou It's terrific

[liv298]

what type of tin whistle is that? sick cover ps

[Berlinerkatze]

Yesterday I got a tin whistle and I love it..it is easy <33 And "Concerning Hobbits" is so beautiful. I learn it now ;)

[dismallyx]

how do you play the highest note in the piece, at around 0.09 seconds? thanks

[MistPlankton8]

it's 'concerning hobbits' mixed with 'hymn of the sea'

[fefexD]

Where I can find the sheet music of this song?

[Zambaku]

Is it hard to learn? Do you have to heat it up like a recorder?

[Noverus]

Well if you already know to play a recorder it should not that hard. If not.. it would be easier as a recorder (in the beginning, but in ormanentation it's same difficult level)

About head it up:

It depends to the whistle. Some sound almost the same and some need a bit playing before they expand to their true tune.

[bassdrumguitarplayer]

no. this is Lord of the rings. I admit they do sound very similar on the tin whistle. but what your thinking of is Hymn to the Sea

[kamssone14]

If (or) you could serve notes can throw on music record me internet Concerning Hobbits strone and I will serve thankful depend very link me

[Vannras]

.... O.o WTF? haha xD

[MrTruffleslam]

u taught me how to play this haha

[pr0gram1st]

Bravooooo its realy calming music , i love this ;)

[itchy8sara]

where do u get notes for the penny whistle plz

[PlatniumProductions]

wow why did you go from lotr's to titanic???

[theFriendlyHughes]

This song isn't called 'Concerning Hobbits', it's 'In Dreams'. Beautifully played, though :)

[jorgenmac]

Nice. Went from Hobbiton to the TItanic at the bridge, but hey it worked

[mrspikey100]

can you tell me the name of that wistle

[PigeonLillian]

It's a Tin Whistle (or ''Penny Whistle'').

[scottytheace]

those are both correct names for this instrument, it is also called the irish flute.

[tifferdile1]

Actually it's called an Irish "Whistle". An Irish flute is side blown as other flutes are.

[scottytheace]

it goes by several names:

1) tin whistle

2) penny whistle

3) irish flute

[shas1814]

Thanks for posting this!

I couldn't figure it out until I watched this video.

Namaste!

Shas

[misscornflakes08]

lol i cant find notes so i have to look at your hands and decipher them myself..tell me anyone, can someone reply back the notes as in c b a g f e d

[hellopoppet06]

You DEFINITELY weaved Titanic music into there near the middle. I know you did, because I always do that by accident too. I promise you, youtubed this song so I could play it on my own tin whistle, and the part I'm talking about is NOT in the song. I think it's funny that anyone else does that besides me. Hahaha. Good job anyway, though, really. Well played. :)

[Hakaori]

LOL !!! I read your comment the exact second he played that part. YOu are right lol, the two sound very same

[xXMonkeyDLeilaXx]

hey that´s really sounds good

(first: sorry for my english ;D)

may you send me the notes of this song please? or say how to play?

[all4HSV]

lol^^

thats kind of stupid....

NO ITS NOT

[bassdrumguitarplayer]

it does sound similar to "My heart will go on" which is from titanic. but it isnt

[HaShomeret]

why doesnt mine sound like that :(

its really beautiful.

[FlashGuyMX]

it may be in c instead of D (whitch is the best one to use for this)

[chansherly212]

thanks! this helps with learning the tune:-)

[tHeDaRkZeLoT]

hey noverus

ich han au agfange tin whistle z'spiele (sid gester..cha scho 3 lieder...XD )

chasch du mier säge was für nen stimmig das die flöte hed??

und chöntisch mier echt no en tipp geh woher ich d note für so lieder bechome?? danke im vor us

[irishchick94]

Thanks so much!

[bulletproofKevlar]

can you possible send me the tabs trying to copy the notes when watching so far def#gaF# then i get lost I think gab then g but i'm not sure could you send me them and inner light too?

[Noverus]

Currently I don't have much time left for make tabs.

If I find some spare time I would consider it...

But otherhand: Just try to get a feeling of the tunes. If you know by itself how each tune sounds.. You should be able to get the missing "part". Don't rush it anyway :)

[bulletproofKevlar]

cool thanks I I'm getting it but half way it starts to turn into brave heart lol ..on the plus I think i can get the braveheart song down lol

[ssjadam]

consider it? lol it takes 5 seconds to type a tab out, 6,5,4,2,1 is the first bit, THAT WAS HARD, its a poor ass tin whistle lol get over yourself

[Noverus]

Feel free to give him the tabs. I don't mind if someone have the time, mood and accuracy to help him -> Don't offend, just do it.

With my 12h/day Work-Schedule (Travel not included) and some Responsibilities in Clubs and Friends... Currently I don't have the time for create sheets and tabs (even not for my own compositions, which makes me a bit sad ).

[737PilotBarry]

The part between 0:24 and 0:34 is from the Titanic theme not the Lord of the Rings. Other than that this is pretty good:P

[Noverus]

It maybe sound familiar but I'm pretty sure that such a "pattern" is used in the original soundtrack. Even at concert in Luzern/Switzerland I heard that pattern.

Maybe again to mention it: I played the track just "by hear and guess" so it's not accurate as within original Sheets (unfortunatly no original Sheet available for Tin Whistle itself)

[Candorf123]

Just bought my cheap scrappy pennywhistle, thx for making this vid, im learning the beginning now.. got any tips?

[Noverus]

I haven't any specific tips. Just don't rush and never force to play. It should make fun and if it does.. you will play more and get better at it. Just take it easy :D

[IRATiocfaidhArLa]

thanks for the close up of the song.  i can't read notes and this has helped me learn the song alot. Thank you.

[Felosial85]

Gefällt mir sehr gut! :D

[Felosial85]
