Stairway to Heaven - Guitar and whistle cover

Everything you hear in this vid is played by me.

This is my version of 'Stairway to heaven' by Led Zeppelin. I play it on my Yamaha acoustic guitar, and my Feadog tin whistle. At some parts of the song I play the part of 4 whistles and 2 guitars at the same time, and my whistle doesn't go as low as most of the lower parts, so i've had to play it an octave higher, then lower it in my multitrack recording software.

This took a long time to learn each bit, and pick out all the notes of each instrument by ear. I'm fairly pleased with the finished result, although I know I could do it alot better.

Since Windows Movie Maker really annoys me, I've decided to take the easy option and fill the majority of the video with nice pictures, instead of cutting up tons of video!

Look out for more vids soon!
