    You can tell she's dedicated to the tin whistle because it's discolored around the finger holes. Hours of playing...well done!

      She uploaded a video five years ago with the same whistle! Man the miles on that thing. I can only hope mine and myself will sound so good after five years. I'm a real beginner in search of a new whistle, contemplating the killarney

      @@EquineRose-Rosie- I went with the killarney about a week ago - definitely a good choice! I agree with your appraisals of it too. I still suck but at least my sucking sounds a bit more bearable for the neighbours now :P Need to practice my finger accuracy.
      also, definitely do the elder scrolls playthrough ;D nice channel.

    Thanks you so much for your videos. I'm currently practicing this tune with my wife (she plays accordion, I play the whistle) and your video is immensely helpful. Listened to it over and over again. It is also one of the best solo-versions of this tune on tin whistle on YT, I think. Keep up the good work. Please upload more videos :): The last one was Banish Misfortune and that is already 4 months ago. BTW--your videos were one of the main reasons I bought a Tony Dixon DX204 and it is awesome!

      The model of the whistle is the Tony Dixon DX204 Heavy Brass Whistle in the key of D. It is a whistle I highly recommend you can purchase it from the Tony Dixon website:
      www.tonydixonmusic.co.uk/products/dx204/d
      It is their best model from a sound perspective both for novices and professional players.

      Do you have any recommendations for favorite books, or online teaching sources? Or favorite source for sheet music? I am enjoying playing so much and find it not hard at all, though to get really good and discover the nuances takes time. If you ever feel inspired to post an instructional video about playing tips and suggestions, I would appreciate watching it! Do you have a website or another location where you post your music? Thanks so much for the beautiful melodies!

    • @vvvero555
      @vvvero555  6 років тому +1

      I usually learn tunes by listening them several times, and then trying to play them with the tin whistle... When the tune is particularly fast or difficult, I easily find tutorials or slower versions on youtube.... These are the only advices I can give you! And of course, listen lots and lots of irish tunes... I personally love bands like Planxty, The Bothy Band, Steeleye Span, Dubliners, Lúnasa... Enjoy! ;)
      Ps. I don't have any website... just this youtube channel... I intend to upload more videos, but I constantly forget to do it!! :)
