  • Our years ago, during lockdown, I posted a version of Dougie MacLean's lovely air played on fiddle by Alison Diamond and now here is a version featuring Janine Ashall, a very good friend and playing colleague, playing the melody on Low D Whistle. I have added backing on guitar, synth cello and mandolin.

    This is beautiful John. Might have to buy me a low-D whistle.

      Many thanks, Glennys. Will pass on your comments to Janine.
      If you are going to get a Low whistle have listen to several, both metal and wooden. Quite a variety of tones from the different materials, I am told by those who play them. They certainly add some lovely sounds to the tunes. 😄

    I absolutely love this John and Jane !! Such a wonderful tone from the low D Whistle. I never did master it when I had one. I hope to hear more from the two of you.

      Many thanks, Ginny. I will pass on your comments to Janine. Is this the time to get your own whistle out of storage and have another go?
      we hope to do a few more postings - it is easier when we actually play together live, but I still miss the fun of the transatlantic collaborations you and I did a while back with the files flying back and forth over the internet.
