This is one of my favorite tunes to play! Every time I pick up my Low-D whistle, this seems to be the first thing that comes out. Thanks again for another beautiful rendition + tutorial.
Спасибо! Я давно ждала табы на Энью! Мы с дочерью сами подобрали,-не так точно,как Вы,-спасибо,-СПАСИБИЩЕ!🌷❤😍Вот это подарок для всех любителей тинвистла!😊
I just got a tin whistle been learning from these videos I've been trying to learn Fi's theme from Zelda skyward sword, its a really nice piece, would love to see you do that. Keep up the good work!
This tune has me hooked! I’m going to skip over the beginner whistles that may give me fits and get a good intermediate one. This way I can eliminate that the problem is surely me.
Thanks for sharing this! It's SO soulful and peaceful. Nice to hear your Lir A! I just received mine from Ireland... via your promotion of their instruments. They even gave me a discount for mentioning you and your videos - thanks! Looking foward to more tunes on that sweet A!
Amazing! Thank you Stefanie! Proposal: i am allways order your tunes in Playlists using the key of the Whistle. Think would be helpfull for peoples who have not only a D 😀
Totally Awesome! You and KayThePianist definitely did justice to Enya's song. Beautiful! Both your versions (Low D & Mezzo A) are great, but I just love this newer version. P.S. Adding an A whistle to the to buy list.
See i was thinking of picking up a tin whistle but it felt like the same problem i had with my ocarina. Just too... High. Then I came across this. And it's much better.
Love this so much ❤. Anyone happen to have Enyas Caribbean Blue sheet music for a low D or know where to get? I may just have to write my own version. Thanks for this @cutiepietinwhistle
Well I think, you are a perfect whistle - lady (it is fun, sorry). But I like what you do, well, I' m a bad whistle player, I am in the beginning but it is getting better. Really, great videos, wonderful. I am sending only a positive spirit. Greetings from Germany/Black Forest🙋♂🎼
Overall, good. Make sure you keep the sustain on the synthesizer notes, otherwise it can sound a bit cut-off in certain spots! A really beautiful sounding instrument.
Hi, I'm from Brazil, I'm always watching your videos and you've helped me become a good flutist, could you share the background music you use as a basis for playing please?
Thank you, that's so lovely to hear ❤️ You can find karaoke tracks here on UA-cam. They're very useful for playing along to. I use a mixture of karaoke tracks, accompaniment from musicians I've worked with, and backing music I make myself. The backing tracks I make, and the accompaniment by other musicians are available on my Patreon for $5 monthly supporters ❤️
I bought a low d Tony Winston 2 years ago. I am pretty sure I am of Irish decent; my last name is Atkins. I live in the middle of the United States, Oklahoma. You gave me the best words of encouragement, practice, practice, practice. I am in only 2 days in and still learning how to cover the holes. I saw on one of your videos, you had a note checker. What was that? BTW this year I am learning Irish, as I hope to visit Ireland someday. Please keep your videos up. Thank you, CLIFF.
Hi Cliff, I have a 'tuner' app on my phone. I also have an electronic tuner too. It'll show you which notes you're playing as you play them, and if they're in tune or not 😊
@@CutiepieTinWhistle Excuse me. But could you tell me if the same Tin Whistle that you're using at the beginning of the video produces the same low tunes?
What sheet notes books you recommend? Hit me some titles with popular pop songs, game and movie themes. I have Clarke C tinwhistle and playing using piano sheet notes but I am curious if whistles notes differs from them. Sorry for my English.
Audio/video recorded separately for this one, they don't always match up perfectly then 😂 I usually just record the whole thing in one go because I never play the same thing twice 🤣
I've been looking for tabs for a song for a long time. It's for a native American flute. The song is called "walking with the elders" I can't remember the writer.
Hello my friend and thanks you for your youtube channel. Is it possible to have an advice? I want to buy my first tin whistle (ive choose a Tony dixon) and i want to know if i must buy a D or a C. I dont want to play irish music only but blues music, and i want to have a large choice to play with guitars, worship, etc... I want to learn chromatic scales too. A D or a C? Thanks you so much God bless you Jimmy
Hi Jimmy. If you plan to follow tutorials and use tabs, I'd recommend a D whistle, as most tutorials will be on a D whistle. Tin whistles aren't chromatic instruments, they are diatonic, so don't play the full range of sharps and flats without having to half hole. It's possible, but very difficult. I'd recommend playing recorder if you want to play a wider range of notes.
@@CutiepieTinWhistle thanks for your answer. I want to play blues music and play improvisations with friends on guitar thats why i ask the question about the C whistle. If there is two octaves can i play what i want? Or the D is good?
I still get a bit of a squeak sometimes when playing the high D and c#. Does tonguing the note help or what can I do to avoid a surprise squeak sometimes?
I want to play this on my regular D whistle but I can’t find any backing tracks, is there a way to access the one you are playing with? I couldn’t find the backing track without the whistle on his website. Beautiful job by the way, your tutorial is helping me a lot.
Backing tracks are available on my Patreon page for $5+ monthly supporters, though I'll have to check to see if this one's available. (I'm not at my computer right now but I'll check for you tomorrow 😊)
I love your videos so much. I'm a flute player and I would like to learn to play irish whistle. But I'm struggling with finding the right one for me. Is this A whistle? Because on the website they say it's high A, so I'm a bit confused. :D
So lovely tune, and you play it si gently! Please, help me, do you use the same whistle in the cover and tutorial parts of the vidio? I'm asking, because the sounds are quate different, In cover part is seems softer...
Hi CutiePie, I am sorry to bother you again. I have a very small tin whistle which I bought in Dingle and it cost 7€. Listening to you play I am getting very interested in playing but I would like to buy a whistle which is bigger with a more saxophone sound, if possible, and not too expensive. Could you please advise. Thank you so much. Greg.
Hi Greg, you won't really find a tin whistle that sounds like a saxophone as such... BUT... Howard low whistles have a number of mouthpieces you can choose from (one is labeled 'reed' and has a slightly more reed instrument sound) they're around £130 though. Alternatively, I think Erik the Flute Maker sells a pocket sax (also expensive but you can buy cheap versions on eBay or Amazon) but they have saxophone fingering, not tin whistle fingering. If you'd like to try a low whistle that's affordable, I recommend James Dominic whistles (won't sound like a sax but won't break the bank) jamesdominicmusic.com/?aff=6
You can try looking for karaoke tracks on UA-cam, or $5+ monthly supporters on my Patreon (or Ko-fi) also get to enjoy backing tracks for most of the tunes I play! 😊
@@CutiepieTinWhistle where can I find a link to your patreon? I got my son hooked on the tin whistle. He got one from a toy store and I picked it up and played it a bit which surprised him. When I was a kid I bought one because of the titanic song so I learned a bit. Now he’s been obsessed and practicing constantly. Made me pick it up again. Now we both are learning by watching your videos.
Wow! Thanks for the video! Great tutorial! I was looking for Enya on whistle score. Do you know what instrument is played in the minute 2 : 25 of her song, Exile? I think it's a low whistle, but I'm not sure. Thanks in advance!
A whistles can be called alto, mezzo or low as most whistle makers generally only make one A whistle, a mid range whistle. High A would be too small to play, and a bass A would be too large 🙂 so as long as it says 'A' you should be fine 👍
@@Silentpartner2176 yes, you can use the same tabs and pretend you're playing on a high D whistle, but use any key. On the A, you'd just be playing a lower pitched version of the original song 😊
@@CutiepieTinWhistle Thank you!!! I thought I was losing my mind at first! I followed the link provided for the whistle used and it was a general page but I'll definitely look into their A whistles - this one has such a beautiful mellow range and tone!
@@CutiepieTinWhistle I am based In Europe Bulgaria, there was a note saying it the shippment would take about 9 days. I wrote them everywhere but they did not answer. I'm stating to think it's fraud
@@mab00991 it's not 😊 I interviewed then this year about the troubles they were having with their deliveries. You can watch that interview on my channel: ua-cam.com/video/Jdb484Z2LP0/v-deo.html If you've made them aware that you're still waiting for the whistle, they'll be looking into it. All you need is a little patience 😊 their whistles are worth the wait! x
This song is originally in F# Minor. Am I correct in assuming that you transposed the song to D Major to make it easier to play? Because you'd need some serious half-holing skills to play the song in Minor to get the correct original notes, I believe.

I played this song at my mothers funeral. Brings a tear to my eye every time! Simply beautiful.
Aww, there are tunes that do that to me too
My sincerest condolences.
I am sorry for your loss.
❤🙏
The Lord of the Rings and and the music of Enya... congratulations indeed on her talent!
Thank you so much for these Beautiful tunes Pinned, and strumming along 🤠🎸
One of my favorite songs. When I’m having a bad day, I’ll listen to this and I feel better.
Oh, my goooosh! This song is SO YOU, Stephanie! It's all enchanting and mesmerizing and magical!
This is one of my favorite tunes to play! Every time I pick up my Low-D whistle, this seems to be the first thing that comes out. Thanks again for another beautiful rendition + tutorial.

I am quite new so it's hard for me to catch them.
So here I am back again 1 year later to listen to this Lovely song.
