Staten Island

Me playing a traditional irish hornpipe on my tin whistle in D. I'm not very good since i've only been playing for a week or so now.

i personally don't like the c naturals because it sounds so UNatural. i know the other fingering is the half hole the first hole, but i don't do that cuz its too confusing

Always love the "dip" in this tune.

Very nice! I play this tune on the violin and have always emphasized the C naturals in the tune--they make me think of horns honking, just as you might imagine they would in a New York traffic jam.

I learnt this tune about 8 years ago, but I didn't know the name! Now I know, thanks a lot!

Muy bien, ahora tienes que pillarte un low y darle caña hasta que no puedas más.

i usually use O###O# on my tin whistle, try them both see which is better

May want to ease up a bit on the tonguing and watch the tempo. All said and done very well done for playing such a short time. Check out my website for more tips and advice: whistlethis (dot) com

Half-holing the top isn't the only other fingering available.

What I generally use for the C natural on my Copeland is O#O###. Looks like you're using O##OOO.
