Inisheer -- Low D Whistle (homemade)

This is me playing Inisheer on an Irish low whistle that I made from PVC pipe using the instructions on Mr. Guido Gonzato's excellent website: http://www.ggwhistles.com/howto/index.html

I love playing the Irish tin whistle: I picked it up in high school but haven't played it much since. I'm not really that good yet, but getting better. Inisheer was a little easier for me, because it's a slower piece. However, the whistle I made takes a lot of breath (I need to tweak it to improve on that), so I messed up a lot of the longer notes, especially toward the end.

I'm going to buy a Guido because I don't think I can make one that sounds that good. I'm sure it'd take several tries. Your sounds great and you played well. Thanks for sharing.
