Many thanks for your lovely videos, Scott. I'm an absolute beginner. Before March 2024, I had never knew that the low d whistle existed. It has a gorgeous timbre. I play the baroque recorder. May everyone keep well, safe and happy🎵🎶🎺🤩
Valerie, welcome! We are so glad to have you in the group. Baroque recorder, nice. I do enjoy the recorder, but not half as much as the low whistle (personal preference obviously). Looking forward to hearing of your progress.
The only tune i memorised cause i played it to death is Carolan's quarrel with the landlady, that was suuuch a challenge i worked on that for several weeks until i was happy with it. I love Carolan's tunes they suit me for some reason.
Yep i can do that with driving some place i have a photographic memory ! I was going to be a taxi driver in Berlin shortly before i met my husband there, i had the entire map of Berlin in my head could have driven you any place from any place :)
wherever i moved to i found the best routes and how they hang together withing months of settling there i had that since childhood. Ha maybe i was a trecker or pathfinder in a former life who knows.
@@LowDWhistle my husband was the opposite with finding his way he was totally hopeless bless him yet good with names , lyrics etc it is funny isn't it.
My son recently became a firefighter / EMT, one of the things he has to do is memorize how to get from anywhere right turn left turn, etc. in the area he works to the hospital as quickly as possible. He basically has to memorize the whole map of the area he’s working.
I love the idea of giving it a happy home in your brain. What I’ve discovered is it if I memorize a tune and don’t play it for a while it goes away, unfortunately.
My husband was like that with names and names of actors , i have always struggled with that name dislexia or sth ... i can see the actors face but can i remember the name... nope

His tunes are fun. That’s a wild and fun tune. Well done.

oh boy i am sooooooo bad at this i can't play a single one from memory properly just bits here and there it's soooo frustrating
I am still working on it myself. I spent so many years where I was told to follow the printed score. Breaking a decades old habit isn’t always easy.

I totally understand.
