This is why I love instruments. I bought a tin whistle as a joke for my Dungeons and Dragons character to annoy my friends. Now I am actually practicing in my free time to get better. There are so many skills to learn. Your videos have helped immensely in my experimentation to find what fits. Thank you so much.
Before starting my adventure with tin whistle I thought that fingering would be the hardest, and blowing was just blowing, nothing difficult. After a few days, each clean sound is a little success for me, even though I mastered Concernig the Hobbits quite well. Great channel Stephanie, thanks a lot!
@@thesixstringshooter that's good to know. I am totally new to the tin whistle so I'm just learning and getting pointers from everyone. If you can give me any pointers be great. Thanks in advance
@@gypsyman535 Learn sheet music as soon as possible, and learn about traditional celtic whistle music. I have a couple videos of me playing on my insta @beanmicah
I have been following you vedios....as i am a newbee....to tin whistle??? Even i had a trouble of cracking the note while doing into higher octave!.....but now this is helping me a lot...... Keep going stephenie!!!
I find this video so well explained you are a great teacher, as a well-experienced wind specialist I enjoy your material so much. keep going you are great.
Just started with the tin whistle a few weeks ago and by watching your videos I have progressed quite a lot in a very short time. You are a good teacher, you make it so very easy!
I bought a tin whistle whilst in Ireland years ago , I’m of Irish Heritage ,and during the Covid lockdowns I got into it, love it! Such a passionate instrument. Still got a while to go , but I play several other instruments and its in my practice routine. Enjoy all 🇦🇺
Hello a big "thank you" for your channel. I'm Just beginning tin whistle (I'm a guitarist /singer, you can take a look at my modest channel if you want lol), and your tutos are very helpful to me. Furthermore, I don't speak a really good english (I'm french), but I love your accent: I can understand every things you say lol. And what about your expressive face: your smiles and laughs each time put me in a good mood!!! A very joyful and friendly girl /teacher it's a pleasure. So: really good job. Thank you and carry on like this...
Part 1 embouchure and air control Part 2 dynamic contrasts, crescendo, and diminuendo Part 3 tonguing, Staccato vs lagoto, double tonguing Part 4 vibrato or chages in tone, rounded and wide or narrow and flat, gritty or clean Part 5 Ornaments, slinding, bending pitch, trills. Grace notes, ect.
Hi! Cutiepie. You are so cute. I am taken up the ten whistle again, i don know the notes, i played a little as a boy. I got distracted as a man, Now i want to practice the whistle again. Congratulations on reaching nearly 100.+k on the tube.
Had this: "Och, yer no supposed tae dae it like that - it isnae traditional." My response: "True enough, bro, but it's the way I like it. You got yours, I got mine. Enjoy." I'm living in Seville at the moment and they get that way with flamenco. Gitano o nada.
Hi Bonnie lass , Thanks for your reply. Regards, Bill . P.S. my wife said do they make them in rubber , she feels like hitting me over the head when she gets fed up of the noise.
I've been playing tin whistles for about 5 years now and thanks for sharing the different keys of whistles. I have all in d 1 low d my nx is lowg. Waiting for it to come
Thank you for the tip on how to play the higher octave. I have been frustrated to the point of putting the flute down for several months because I couldn't find a tutorial on how to properly achieve the higher octave. You put it in simple terms. I was one who just blew harder and got more frustrated. There is no tutor in Austin, TX, so I've been relying on UA-cam videos. Even if you think it's too simple to put on UA-cam you may still influence someone. Nice job on the ornamentals too.
Hello Bonnie lass as we would say here in the northeast . Love your videos My fingers won’t reach lowd whistle even with pipers grip , what low whistle would be a comfortable reach . Kind regards . Bill .
Is this the same delightful young lady as in the other videos? How amazing a change of hair style and makeup. I get a vibrato/fluttering from the back of the tongue, a bit like gargling but not voiced of course.
Cutie, (assuming your huba doesn't mind me calling you that), diaphragmatic vibrato was recently developed (hence they didn't even know about it). I suggest it is the only practical way to vibrato on flutes such as the whistle, the recorder, Native American flute, and although the lip vibrato can be use on the transverse, diaphragmatic is the way of proper method taught today. To bad it's so hard to learn huh.
I'm the same. I just naturally use breath vibrato. Some of my fingers don't move fast enough to have a good vibrato. Remembering and finding when to taken in air is a good to know. I get so focused on playing a tune I forget to breathe in (hahah). I've played around with puffing my cheeks with the lowest notes. Still pursing my lips but let any addional air slightly fill my cheeks and regulates the flow out to the fipple. Just did that by accident but haven't perfected it. Your ornamentation set is perfect and is just enough to add beauty to any tune. I've tried the complicate cut/tap/rolls and I could never get the hang of them. Thanks for sharing!
Amo i tuoi video, da quando ti seguo non ho potuto fare a meno di comprare uno tin wistle 😅.... Ora non mi resta che impararlo a suonare🤔 Ps: fantastica 🤩
Just stumbled across and saw airflow omg finally found a video that is truly helpfull for me yesss! Thank you for the tips and tricks it really gives a push to go practice more than i do now.
Хорошо когда это все доступно , Но проживая в глухой сельской местности ,не так то просто приобрести такую игрушку , поэтому выход из положения был один , изготавливать и учиться на ней играть пришлось самостоятельно , да и играть на инструменте сделаном своими руками куда приятнее , Огромное спасибо мастерам которые достаточно понятно об'ясняют и показывают как изготавливаются такие инструменты , и девушкам - музыкантам которые проводят видеоуроки как играть на таких флейтах , Ведь это полезно как для здоровья так и для души , Очень рекомендую всем , займетесь не пожалеете ! Удачи всем кого-то заинтересовало .
Is this lady’s accent typical of a particular city/area ? It seems to change every so often (does anyone else hear that?) , but it’s pleasant. Thoroughly pleasant to listen to but .... where ?.?.?
I'm very interested in picking up this instrument, but don't know a lick about musical instruments in general, so am not sure what to buy! Would you have any pointers?
I'm a brand new "player" of the whistle and I was wondering if there was a video that would cover how to to keep the whistle from sounding shrill and irritating. This was exactly what I was looking for so thank you! You have a new sub!
@@CutiepieTinWhistle Haha... yeah i thought about the D key and thought it would be too high in pitch, but now when i got the C, its seems too low ! Does those instrument play chromatics, with some half hole finger covering techniques ?
Hello, just arrived here and I am loving your channel. Thank you. In this video you mention Vibrato, and say "yes, do it if you like" but don't really show how to do it. I think it's really beautiful, could you make a video exploring it a bit more?
@@JacksNephew interesting. I'm gonna try it out. I first bought one of those red tin whistles Cutiepie plays and there was just no way. But yesterday I got an original Clarke, of those little black ones, u gotta blow a bit harder on them, and the vibrato has been starting to come out naturally. Through diafragma tho. Thank you
Thanks a pile, have been playing mine for a couple and so much of what you just showed me is stuff I've been trying to reverse engineer from music I've heard. I play guitar so I'm familiar with creating sound but these whistles are so small and fine, I find them to be incredibly beautiful instruments. Thanks for your time, again.
pajamasflannel you're much better off starting with a high D Whistle. They're cheaper and easier to play. You'll learn all the basics and techniques you need to pick up a low whistle and play it easily and you'll get to know if you actually like playing whistles before you spend any money. Low whistles need a different grip and a lot more air and the finger holes are large and far apart. They can often be too much of a stretch for people to be able to actually play, (my husband can't play one because his fingers won't stretch enough). They're more difficult to play in general, so everyone will recommend starting high then going low 😊 pick up a Clarke Sweetone (in the video here) they're less than £10 usually and will be a great place to start.
Great technical video! Thanks to your tutorials I am starting to build a repertoire, and I am not being able to practice all the songs I know every day. Perhaps you should consider a tutorial on repertoire management :D

She’s using a red Clarke sweetone d for those that are wondering.
Yes indeed, I just received mine from Amazon made by the Clarke Co. Imported from England. It does have very good reviews.
@@gypsyman535 I prefer the Clark original but the sweetone is pretty. The original has a less recorder sound and more airy wood sound.

But, we aren't using traditional, we are doing "fantasy style" as I call it. Vibrato makes Tin Whistles far more beautiful.
