That bass A is pretty much an organ pipe with holes 😅
I love the high F sounds solid.
I have been searching for a video that compares all the keys that whistles come in, not necessarily the brand. So thank you for that!
I think this is something new that you've never done before and I really enjoyed it except. Such a fun showcase for the whistle makers and sounds of the different keys. I think I prefer the high C and low F keys, but they all sounded really good. Thanks for your hard work!
I love seeing and hearing all the different ones. 🙂 Wonderful!
Oh that was great! I had no idea whistles came in some of those sizes and keys. And of course, you played them all beautifully. Thank you for the neat demonstration. 😀
What a wonderful video! ❤ Thank you for all the inspiration you give all of us. Great to compare so many keys possible!
Thanks for the video Stephanie. I want to extend a big thanks to you because your videos got me into learning to play the whistle a little over 3 years ago. I have moved on to learning to play the Irish Flute but still pull my whistle out from time to time to play them. My favorite keys to play in whistle are mezzo A, Bb, B nat and High C. My Burke Bb is my go to whistle.
I'm ready for a low D ! Thank you for the encouragements!
Thanks for the showcase! I am learning a lot about tin whistle from you. I only have a standard D whistle, but I am intrigued with learning some of the others that are on the lower side.
Wow!!! You’re incredible !!! Thank you so much for this! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great stuff! Your channel and you are great 👍
😯 Loved hearing Painted Heart in this video, it’s one of my favorite songs 😍
I also always enjoy your comparison videos, and this was no exception! It was cool to hear the different colors of all these keys in one go
You know I thought I'd already made a tutorial for it but I can't find it anywhere 😂🤣 so that's next week!
Glad you enjoyed the comparison though 💚💚
@@CutiepieTinWhistle 😆 Haha, looking forward to next week, then!
Thank you for this fun and informative video. I have discovered my love for the tin whistle about 2 months ago and have already amassed a nice little collection. I have a full set of Lir whistles from Eb to A. Carbony Celtic high D and Mezzo G, and a Tony Dixon Aluminum low D. I enjoy playing them all daily. I like to compare how each of them sound for each song I practice. I start with the high D and then play the song again in another key till I find which whistle I prefer for which song.
Wow, you are wonderful! My Generation never sounds that good, nor does my Howard Low D. You were great on each whistle!!, also you have lovely nails!
Thanks for this information. The high C whistle sounds very good, lots of color
Only in your magical performance can I listen to such an amazing collection of absolutely phenomenal covers of this incredibly beautiful music.
Thank you CutiePie
👍👏🌹🌹🌹💕.
So cool!
WOW! Thanks so much! This is just what I have been looking for so that I could decide which low whistle suits me. My goodness what a stretch and lots of controlled breathing for the bass A! I love the sound of it but with my arthritis I don't think I would have much success in playing it!
Wow well done on the low b!!!!
Thank you for all information, i thought there was only two whistles,loved H D.
totally awesome i liked the low F, also the low B that looked like a bansuri
That high Eb sounds incredible. I'm usually drawn to low whistles, but my goodness its so warm and mellow. Maybe the brass?
Made it to the end lol 😅
Love it as always, thanks for this.😊
👏👏👏
Loved this .. I liked the low F key ,… and sure low D ❤
You played them all beautifully. I am still partial to the High D and C whistles. 😀
Very informative, listening to the different sounds. I was surprised to find I really was drawn to the both F's. I do like the low D but I have small hands and have been afraid I wouldn't be able to properly reach the holes. Thanks!
Oh this was very interesting to listen to and hear the differences
Very nice video 👍🏻
Gracias !! Estoy aprendiendo de cero con tus videos .. " aunque no te entiendo naaada. Pero sos una increíble maestra ★
Nice one Stephanie. I love the low A whistle sound but I was a bit concerned that you were going to fall over backwards to keep it in shot! Keep up the good work.
That was cool 👍👍
When you play them I like all the whistles. But my favorites are the “Chris Wall Low F” and the “MK Low D Whistle”.
So cute❤
Favorite range is the mezzos. Carbony B flat and A are my go-to, they have the balance of brightness with resonance as well. B flat is a great key, since it corresponds to many E flat sax backing tracks. High whistles a bit too chirpy for me, and I don't have enough air to play the low D yet.
very good video.
Loved this! I have whistles from Bb up to high F, but I really want to get high and low G whistles eventually
I treated myself to an A Karavaev G whistle and it's the most beautiful instrument right after my Lir a whistle, can recommend both highly.
Thank You so much for the video I almost never hear anything about the Messo range. So thank you it was really useful. Just saw you are going to do a tut on Painted Heart | by 藤原育郎 THANK YOU . I can wait!❤
I love the key of A
Woodwind player here. D is good.. D = all fingers down = D on the page.
A "crude" instrument? It is not easy, & it sure sorts out those who can hear what's going on.
That C tune from phantom of the opera sounds ssoooo goood.
I absolutely loved the video! It's so awesome to be able to hear the tonal differences between the ranges. Quick question: the jig you're playing on the mezzo-F and Eb, do you happen to know its name? I really like it, and I'd love to find the B section! Thank you so much for all that you do!
Thank you! It's Shipping Up To Boston (link in the video description) 💚💚
I got John Bushby of Shearwater Whistles to make me a Bass G. It's a stretch 😝
Btw, very interesting demo. Don't know why, but there's something special about Alto F.
Hi, I like the high D and the low D the most..
I love it, which one do you recommend to play fear no darkness by Adrian Von Ziegler?
Great playing 👍, I was wondering if you know which whistle is used for the Lonesome Boatman by the FInbarr Fury the Irish Folk Singer If you heard of him , also is the whistle holes are the same or do they change and vary per whistle.
I meant to mention this to you before, but kept forgetting. Your name is known outside of whistling world. I am a member of The Tool Show, and on Monday nights we have a live meeting. In that meeting we talk about the show, videos, and RUclips producing videos. Rob, who runs the channel, was talking about what various RUclipsrs do. And for the one thing he said “Cutiepie does it, and she is very successful with it.”
tbh E and Bb, D and G are best in terms of cost vs sound, ofcourse the larger low whistles are great but they cost the same or even higher then some lower end Irish flutes, so as a musician I own all of them but the mentioned 3 are the ones I use most
Hi. I play the high f and high d. I want go lower but dont want to have to alter my fingering technique by learning the very low whistles. The Mezzos - are they still covered with the fingertips like the higher whistles?
I'd recommend trying a Lír A whistle. You should still be able to use your finger pads for that.
About the songs Boolavogue and The last Rose of Sommer played by Anthony Murphy on a hand-made A whistle, I began to learn D-whistle.
But I love the magical sound of A. Because I lack the experience with different whistles sounds, I have a question. With which A whistle could I get closer to my goal? Thank you very much in advance.
It depends what type of sound you're going for. Do you want something soft and breathy? Textured? Or clean and sweet sounding? Raw and crisp? Rich and strong?
If you don't have a voice/tone preference then any A whistle will be fine.
I like the bass A whistle. That should be good for jazz, mainly.
Do you need specific sheet music for the different keys, or can you just play the same music, as long as you use the same holes on a high A as a high D whistle? How do people approach that?
If you're using whistle tabs that show the fingering, those are usable for every whistle but of course the notes you play change. The lowest note of a D whistle is D but if you use an A whistle, it will be A instead.
If you're playing alone using this kind of tabs, you can use any kind of whistle. If you play with other instruments, the key matters.
If you're using actual sheet music, the key of the whistle matters because sheet music depicts specific pitches, not fingerings. You will need to transpose the sheet music if you want to change the key you play in.
You have a detailed reply there already, but if you need further info, I have a video here:
ruclips.net/video/SRgKbwRzwAA/видео.html
Hello, can you play and lay out the fingering of one melody on the flute?
That low A looked a bit painful. I guess that is why the bass recorders and some tenors have keys or bent necks. I have heard of whistles with keys but never bent necks. You could hurt yourself playing that last one. Thanks for all this!
You can actually play it whilst kinda looking normal 🤣 you need to sit with it ideally though, not stretch to get into a video 🤣😂 and the Carbony unique design means the finger spacing is the same as a low D whistle! 🤩
Bracker Whistles (Scotland) does bent necks for their bass Bb-G
Does anyone know how long you should be expected to wait on a Chris Wall whistle? He seems severely backlogged right now.
I'm a beginner, and musically ignorant. When I play tabs (for my high D) the higher octave (key?) notes use more aggressive breath, and mellow breath notes are in the key of High D?
So if I had a higher key whistle than high D (idk what key that is) would I be able to play those high notes (on High D tabs) with the mellow breath? Then anything higher would be an octave higher than that?
There isn't a whistle higher than D that would play an entire octave higher, so no, unfortunately not.
A low D whistle, however, plays notes and octave lower than a high D whistle. So, its low notes are an octave lower, and it's high notes are the same as the low notes on the high D whistle 😊
@@CutiepieTinWhistle Ah got it, thank you. I just have to practice not under or overblowing those high notes then lol. That's cool about the low D whistle, I like those low notes
Hi, which high whistle to play in the key of E
I'm not sure, I don't know who makes one
So I like lots of the lower tones whistles. I already know I have issues with the piper's grip. I just ordered a low A. And now I'm wondering WHICH A they're sending! Yikes!
Low A will usually be just under the Bb. Lovely key, easy to play! Very useful too! I don't think many makers actually produce a bass A.
Is it posible to learn training with a tin whistle C?
It's recommended to use a D whistle if you are learning from RUclips tutorials. You can still play the C whistle, but it's easier to learn with D.
Thanks, that's sweet.
I would like to know how can I buy these instruments.
You can buy them all online. They are sold individually by the different whistle makers. I have reviewed each of these whistles on my channel and there are links to different websites under each review 😊
🎶🎧💕
Lol the last one girl had to stretch it out. For some reason i am drawn to the Eb
What is the song name?
It would be a big help if you'd identify each whistle key, thank you! Sam.
The name and key of each whistle is at the top left of the screen 👍
Cual la Key mas usual en musica celta. Thanks
High D
Do you have a video where you talk about how many whistles someone needs to have to cover all their repertoire? Or, what you would own if you had to reduce your whistle stash to a minimum? There must be some philosophy about all this, right?
@@teddidread well really you only need the most common keys of whistle. Eb, D, C, Bb, A, G and F. Maybe an E...
You don't really need both low and high whistle versions of each.
the undertale music really got me
Can you please show us every price and where we brought it
I have reviews and further info on each of these whistles here:

May I ask you how tall are you? As a reference. That bass A looks huge!!
It's pretty big. I'm 160 cms 😁 it's 78cms long.
@@CutiepieTinWhistle It's so cute that you call yourself big. I'm 200 cm and my biggest flute is 29 cm. It was very nice to see the difference in all the brands.
Essentially 5', 3".
Is the high c whistle the lowest tone in the high range am guessing.
I think the Bb is still considered a high whistle 😊 most things below that are considered mezzo or low.
Is a High G quieter than a high D?
Most definitely not 😂 it's small but very high pitched so it's quite a disturbing sound 😂 although it might ACTUALLY be quieter due to it's size, it doesn't seem it at all!
Think of those high pitched dog whistles, vs a referee's whistle...
@@CutiepieTinWhistle I don't care. My neighbors hate me anyway.
Haha, your little arms nearly weren't long enough for the finger placement on that bass A
Like the F
Looks like you need an hour on the rack to play that bass A 😂
The biggest whistle was ebony 😏😂
I still prefer the Chinese xiao flute that will do every note you did with only one instrument. It does require some years of air control skill development.
Last one looks like it was made for some eldritch beings and not for humans. lol Sounds nice though.
You can actually play it whilst kinda looking normal 🤣 you need to sit with it ideally though, not stretch to got into a video 🤣😂 and the Carbony unique design means the finger spacing is the same as a low D whistle! 🤩
These mezzo and bass ones are not tin at all. You should call it "great whistle".
Can a beginner learn on an alto whistle? And if so, which brand is cheap but not crap? Thanks
Yes, although if you're learning online, or with a tutor, most will use a D whistle, so it's certainly considerably easier if you have a D whistle. High or low is fine. You can follow all my tutorials on a low D whistle, no problem at all!
Having a cheap high D whistle to learn on works well if you already have a lower whistle in a different key. Once you have a good idea of how the melody goes, you can simply switch to the lower whistle 😊
A lot of the *cheap* whistles aren't...wonderful.
Of the very cheap (generation, feadog, Clarke) the Clarke Sweetone and Feadog pro are the better options.
Tony Dixon DX005 is a nice little plastic whistle, not too expensive.
iVolga also make a reasonably priced wooden whistle (from big whistle.co.uk) but DO get one with the metal bits on.
@@CutiepieTinWhistle Thanks a lot for the response. I appreciate it. I’m in the US. Could you please drop a link for alto whistles. I love the way they fit in music. Not too high and not too low.
@@Natano-v4p
I'd still recommend getting yourself a cheap D whistle. Learning without one will be very difficult.
Lots of whistle makers provide alto whistles. You'll find a selection of reviews on my channel, they are sold individually at the respective makers websites so there's not really a one-link-fits-all solution I can send unfortunately. If you check my playlists though, you'll see 'whistle reviews' which houses all my tree videos in one place 😁
Lower whistles tend to be more expensive. Affordable places to start would be:
James Dominic Music
Tony Dixon
iVolga
Shearwater Whistles
River Whistles - (3D printed, though they're fragile and often break in the mail when traveling long distances)
@@CutiepieTinWhistle thank you very much
@@CutiepieTinWhistle ahh I have not luck finding a website that has an Alto D whistle. Is there a link you can provide? I like the low D whistles but the alto is the sweet sound in between that I really love.
