The Butterfly (Irish Tin Whistle)

me playing along to that irish butterfly tune thingy with my irish tin whistle...it's really long and kind of repetitive and boring...
(OKAY, LET IT BE KNOWN THAT I LIKE THE UNION JACK FLAG, NOT NECCISARLIY THE COUNTRY, I LIKE THE DESIGN OKAY! I LIVE IN CANADA, I LIKE THE DESIGN)

Whatever else, that is terrible posture for a whistle player. That's why she has to take a breath every one or two measures - which essentially ruins the tune, which is meant to be utterly light and gracious ... like a butterfly

@Patterson1493

i find Irish music to be dramatically improved by the presence of the union flag.

You just be glad she posted this instead of talking about her and the back round.

First of all I doubt you could do any better.

Second of all, if the Lord put us here to judge we'd all be supreme justices.

Thank you for the video.

@Rajamuttu Yes, you giant douche nozzle, but as I have said, there are more tactful, kind ways of criticizing someone who is sharing something as personal as their music with you. Its not like you paid to hear her performance. You come of as an arrogant twat.

@TheChoada

Bad is bad. Putting sugar on it won't help.

Bad is bad. Even when it is played on a $200 Burke whistle. And this stinks to high heaven (except for one really nice ornament at @2:40).

On the other hand, her "The Bucks of Oranmore" is great.  She got her posture right, her tone is 100% better, her rhythm is much better, and her feeling comes through.

I myself would prefer that she stops tonguing (which is probably something she picked up from recorder playing), but YAY for her!

Not sure about the 'what ever' bit at the beginning but thanks for sharing your music. We aren't all professionals and some people like myself have no-one to teach us in person. Ignore the negative comments. At least you have the guts to try and you look like your enjoying it which is the main thing. Sod anyone without any tactile positive criticisms.

[TheChoada]

@Rajamuttu Yea, I guess you dont have to be tactful or kind when you are criticizing someone doing something as personal as sharing their music with you (sarcasm). As I said...

[Rajamuttu]

@TheChoada

No. Not at all.

What makes you think I might be - the fact that I tried to help a whistle player with his whistle playing? Or is it something else?

[doolin2k9]

WTF? why have you go a union jack in your bedroom. UP THE RA"!

[andyfoxy1]

@thomaskellyable yes we can you scummy cunt, your'e probably an irish twat, all irish are scummy thieves that should all be killed without hesitation. oh if you are irish we bailed you out that makes you are bitch. savvy
