It's just a number, and it doesn't really mean anything more than any other number, but it's still staggering and very much appreciated.

    Congratulations now what got me started in to tin whistle was the song the parting glass, amazing song, but your reviews got me started on your channel particularly the Clark sweet tone and the Lir tin whistle videos. Thank you for sharing your passion and knowledge with us.

    The video that made me sub was: ruclips.net/video/VsVdPekOc2Q/видео.html
    The way you break down tunes and slowly add more ornamentation just clicks with my brain. lol There are lots of teachers on this platform for the whistle but for me, thanks to autism and ADHD, yours are the only ones that I seem to be able to learn from. Regardless of the giveaway, thank you for staying on here and not just letting the channel die. I hope one day I can play a duet with ya! Be really cool to meet you. Thanks again for all you've done!

    Hey, Sean! Congrats on the milestone!! I found you the day I picked up a Milligan D at a flea market and had no clue what I was doing! You taught me Fraher's Jig and I was hooked!! I didn't think I would like the short form reels, but you pack alot into a little time!! Your personality, teaching style, musical knowledge and high quality video production skills are what set you apart, keep up the great work!! I actually won the last Lir D you gave away, so I will bow out of this ocntest. Good luck, all, it is a great whistle!

  • @VintonChowderhead

    Last September my wife bought me a Walton's D whistle in Mystic Connecticut, so naturally I went to RUclips to figure out how to play it. I spent some time scrubbing through videos and eventually I ended up on your Star of Munster lesson. Even though I had no tin whistle experience before this (I played ragtime guitar and cajun fiddle, totally ignorant to traditional Irish music), I could tell you played very authentically, unlike most others on RUclips, and I immediately, really loved that tune, but I couldn't yet play it, so I decided to watch your beginner lessons. Afterwards, I learned this very song, The Lilting Banshee, made sure I could play it all the way through, and then I went more into learning ornaments, also with the help of your videos. I haven't used any other teachers or online tuition, save maybe for reading some old forum posts, except your videos, and even though I can learn most songs I ear, I still use your videos to find great new (to me) tunes to figure out! Now, I'm looking to pick up the pipes or flute once I feel really satisfied with my whistle skills!

  • @GoatedNat
    @GoatedNat Год назад +1

    A couple of months ago I bought a Generation whistle so that I could get back into the tin whistle after a 15 year break! (I learned in school as a child. A very common experience here in Ireland). I sought out a tutorial for Sí Bheag Sí Mhór and happened upon yours. A deep dive into your channel revealed you’ve got so much high quality content so I stuck around. I’ve also been recommending your channel to learners who buy tin whistles from the music store I work in.
    Love the Sligo jersey! Glad you had a good time on your most recent trip here.

    • @rattttooooo
      @rattttooooo 11 месяцев назад

      Same experience here, only it's been 8ish years for me since primary school. I've really grown a new appreciation for it since. When you're taught it with a bunch of other squealing children, it's hard to see the beauty of the instrument in those moments Hahaha.

    @donaldkelly1695 Год назад

    25K is a big deal! Great job! I had picked up an Original Clarke and the difficulty I had blowing that whistle I thought was due to my ineptness. Your 'Raglan Road' tutorial allowed me to gain some confidence playing a "complex" tune and another reccomending the SweetTone really got me started. I'm still calling myself a beginner but I'm building quite a playlist.

    Congrats on the 25,000 subscribers! I can't really remember which actual video it was, but it was one of the flute ornamentation videos that I likely subscribed to your channel while watching it. The flute is my main instrument I'm learning, but I do dabble with a really cheap tin whistle. I'm thinking of just taking the whistle on my travels instead of the flute for convenience. Anyway, thanks for putting these videos out for us!

    A year ago I watched Outlander and felt in love with Scotish and Irish folk music. I bought basic Feadóg tin whistle, downloaded "Stóras na Fideig" learning book and played till I learned the basics. Tin whistles are not so common in Poland, so I gained much attention while playing with friends. I started searching for more and found your channel. Don't remember specific video, but I subscribed immediately. Thank you for great content!

    Well Sean, despite your preference for Sligo wear, (I'm from Mayo), I just really enjoy the simple way you have in explaining tunes, working through whistle differences and your honesty when it comes to teaching, learning and playing. As a new starter @48yrs of age (2nd lesson only last week) I'm quickly getting sucked down the rabbit hole that is Irish music and while there is a believed simplicity to the whistle, I'm learning it is so much more. And thankfully, from your videos, I'm learning it's accessible...Other videos are convoluted or tiresome to listen to so that's why I'm here to hear...😄

    Thank you for this! I bought a cheap tin whistle years ago on a visit to Ireland and never thought much of it. But recently, I randomly picked it up again and decided I wanted to learn to play properly. Of the videos I found on RUclips, yours have been the most informative and the best produced. Thank you for your efforts!

    You'll be up to 50,000 in no time! I love your playing and tutorials. It was your beginner series that caught my attention but then when I watched your other videos, I realized this is a guy I can really learn with! Keep up the great work. 😘💕
