Many thanks!

Glad you like them!

Pleased you like it!

Thank you, I hope you enjoy it, I have chosen a number of slow tunes for beginners - available in the link. Enjoy.

Oh wow that is a complement! Thank you.

Thanks, I just felt like I had to do something with the song, it's one of my favourite Oasis songs

You're very welcome! I liked you harp playing!

Thank you!

Not currently, its possible to play F# by half holing the third finger on the top hand.

You're welcome, there ae some beautiful images on unsplash.

The song would work... but the backing would be incorrect as this is pitched for a D Whistle, however if you were playing it without the backing track then you could play the same fingering. The first note all holes covered is C on a C whistle and D on a D whistle, does that make sense? If not reply and I will put together a short video to explain better. This may help... ruclips.net/video/MeJYTfYn5Cc/видео.html

@@fretsnreeds Yes, I understood what you said about fingering, but it would be great if you explained it in a video like the changes in a whistle in C, there are almost no explanations on youTube, thanks

Thanks for that comment @gazf I would agree, for those that want to vary the speed there is always this option. The speed and tab notation is aimed primarily at beginners. As you get more accurate in your playing then speeding up would be a great idea. For some RUclips viewers the settings (gear wheel) is below the video. Using this does not change the pitch.

Pleased you thought so!

Thank you.

Thank you pleased you enjoyed it.

Thank you, it is based on E dorian mode played on my D whistle. The drone just anchors the mode.

Thank you!

So nice of you to say, I'm pleased it helped.

Pleased you enjoyed it! 😀

Thank you, Noted! I do already have a whistle book that allows downloads of the backing tracks. By purchasing you are helping support my work. It is available here. www.sheetmusicdirect.com/en-US/se/ID_No/1222262/Product.aspx

Glad you enjoyed it!

I've done this quickly so its cropped a bit tight, the sheet music will be available shortly as a pdf for you to print a hard copy. ruclips.net/video/LkbYsnqN6dY/видео.htmlsi=poZ9R44P-Gd-mxy2

Nice one to play along with Clare! :)

Thanks I'm pleased you like it! Have fun.

Thanks Luke! I enjoyed working on it.

Thank you I hope it will help some people get inspired to go further!

It's beautiful isn't it!

Glad it was helpful!

Upřímnou soustrast. Je to krásná píseň.

Nemáš zač!

Glad it was helpful!

Pleased you liked it. Yes you can bend some pf the notes, I just tried it on draw bends and blow bends. It may need tweaking to get the most out of it. I expect people who buy this may not intend to bend it!

@@fretsnreeds thanx I can only bend a little to give a small variation ,anyway ordered one,wish they did them in lower keys ,the prob with harmonicas is you need lots to get diff sounds/keys .Anyway thanx for yr upload .

I have a chromatic harmonica, it has a button which slides across the two rows of holes which allows you to play sharps and flats. The one I have is by Hohner. Bending is not required to get the notes. In fact bending is very limited on a Chromatic. You may already know this. Have fun!

@@fretsnreeds Yes bought a Hohner Chrometta 10 but couldn,t get along with it ,you have to be very precise with the slider and breath.Might try the slideless. Tombo S-50.thanx harp on

I have a 10 hole and 12 hole Hohner super Chromonica. The 12 hole requires a bit of TLC the wind savers are shot. They are different beasts to the Diatonic for sure.

yes it does take time to play in time with others but it is a very important part if playing with others is your aim. Its the same as most things practise. Pleased its helpful at this part of you journey.

Glad it helped!

Hi there! So pleased you are enjoying my channel. There is a link in the description you can buy the PDF of the whole book from my publishers. it is here. www.sheetmusicdirect.com/en-US/se/ID_No/1222262/Product.aspx

You're so welcome!

Welcome!

Epic song isn't it.

I think what's happened is the version I heard was a song to the words of "The Unquiet grave" but sung to the Tune of "The Star of the County Down", which according to Robert Cogan in his book130 great Irish Ballads was written by Cathal McGarvey 1866-1927 to an old Scottish air. According to Robert the Air has been used for many ballads including "Dives and Lazerus", "The Murder of Maria Martin" and "Claudy Banks"

The careful entirely cover the finger holes with a good seal. Experiment with breath pressure till you find the sweet place. It may be a problem with the whistle quality though. If you consider an upgrade I recommend Goldfinch Whistles, handcrafted PVC, as a solid mid-price whistle or Gary Humphrey, handcrafted aluminum professional, rather more expensive.

Oh, I forgot Susato whistles. ABS, tunable but not handcrafted, Still, a solid choice for a dependable whistle at a modest price.

I have had success using the blue tack trick where you modify the inside of the whistle by dropping a small pea size of blue tack into the fipple and bedding it in with a chop stick however I found the Dixon Whistle great value for money and I find it plays a lot sweeter, for me anyway. mcneelamusic.com/wind/tuneable-brass-slide-d-whistle-dx005-by-tony-dixon/

this may help, you may know it as poster putty too. ruclips.net/video/LtXAZu8S8fw/видео.htmlsi=_gWdePNycUXH_xju

I was struggling with consistently hitting highs on my Sweetone, but low notes were very easy, so I started modifying the shape of the labium/ramp profile - by making a thicker [steeper] ramp it becomes _much easier_ to play the highs at a _much lower volume and breath pressure,_ but makes playing lows a bit more difficult because you have to blow _very softly_ for the lowest 3 notes. *However,* I have found using a chopstick I could press one or two tiny, sharper ramps into the putty, making it easier to find a nice balance of breath pressure between the highs and lows. It makes the ramp almost look serrated. I have a couple of "Woodis" that were basically unplayable in the high register because of the volume and breath pressure required - by modifying the labium/ramp profile they're useable now, but I still prefer my modified Sweetone. Good luck! If this doesn't make too much sense, let me know and I'll try to explain it better or even make a short video showing what I've had some success with.

Very welcome!

I'm pleased you like it, thank you for your kind comment. :)

The first E has incorrect fingering please see here for the corrected version. (You may have already realised) This version will be replaced or deleted as soon as I get time, the online pdf is correct, I have just checked it. ruclips.net/video/oh3ioJDp8BM/видео.htmlsi=DIaibR_i3aYNaref
