An instrumental for communion

Howdy guys,

I'm better than I was, and not as good as I will be, so I'm slowly getting back in the swing of things

A few places to get good whistles:

www.larkinthemorning.com

Please note that whistles can cost anywhere from $3 to $300 (or more) depending on what you want and what you want it made out of The Chiff and Fipple site (below) has a lot to say about a variety of whistles.

The "definitive" internet site for the whistling community:

http://www.chiffandfipple.com/

The following site has a really nice set of tutorial videos in the "movies" section. It's for low whistle (an octave lower, and therefore twice as large as a regular whistle) but the techniques mostly apply to any whistle, except you use your finger pads to cover the holes for the "regular" whistles. "Tutorials" is the last item in the list. The other videos are good, as well, just for seeing folks playing some good celtic music:

The following site has a good written tutorial:

And lastly, this site has some excellent mp3 recordings of some traditional whistle tunes, as well as gifs of the sheet music of those tunes - very helpful!

I hope something here is helpful! And, to keep on the topic of MidiNotate products, I must say that having Composer to help me practice has helped immensely with my music sight-reading skills, which is one of the reasons that I started playing whistle in the first place!

ttfn,
Sherry
