Irish Flute Tin Whistle - Cat in The Fiddle Case

I only took up Irish flute just over a year ago. So be kind! I just learned this and Im trying to work out the kinks which are many.

I think I say this is a reel... I'm trying to play it as a reel but it is actually written as a barndance. Oh, and its in Gmj. :-)

Thanx Gian nice tune! Wish I could play it like you!

um what kind of flute is it that you use? because i have watched a few videos and it seems that most of the professionals that i have seen have the same one as you.

Its a modern keyless flute copied from a late 19th C. 8 key English flute made by Boosey & Co. named Pratten's Perfected.

There aren't that many of made by Jon C. of Cochran Flutes but its a good one. Many modern flute makers make keyless flutes and use the Pratten's pattern so that is why this may look similar.

wow its really beautiful. is it possible to learn to play the irish flute on your own?perhaps with the help of online tutorials and nothing else?

[aanvil]

Yes and yes.

However much of Irish music is about playing together and sharing tunes just a most music is I believe.

Listen to as much Irish flute playing as possible learn to play those tunes. I'll answer any questions you have. Look for some local Irish musicians and just introduce yourself and listen.

May I say that if you held your flute parralle to your mouth you would get a much stronger, warmer tone? You did very well nicley done

Hi,

I've also been learning irish flute for several months, and I wish I could play this way... I like your sound, and the things you let the music say.

You've become one of my web teachers, many thanks for your help.
