Thank you so much, Stephanie, for all your hard work posting these videos. Thanks to you I've dicovered amazing new music from the likes of Faun and Omnia, and I've got so much to work with now as I also learn how best to make whistles from pvc pipe. I know D seems to be "standard", but the C whistles speak to me more. Keep up your wonderful work!
Hi Stephanie. I suspect this tutorial was a response to my request. If so thanks for the time and work you put into it. Still, I'm flummoxed though and lost as to why I find the concept so baffling!
@@MichaelLevine-n6y well, essentially you need to understand the length of hundreds of notes in a tune and where each of those notes go within a set timing. That timing is usually pretty fast, and doesn't stop and wait for you if you make a mistake... and if you're working with tabs, you need to do all that from memory with no written info infront of you to help you out! Put that way, it's not an easy task ❤️
I do offer zoom lessons too by the way, if you ever REALLY want to get into this and try and learn it 😅 I charge £20 for half an hour lesson. It might make more sense perhaps, if you are actively trying it with a tutor. No pressure of course, I'm not trying to 'sell' my lessons 🤣 I just wanted you to know. x
@@mpanga2916 well the same principal works if you're using tabs and a metronome rather than sheet music. You only need to find the beats and work out which notes hit the beat, then try and make sure you hit that note by the time you get to that beat 😊 simple really. If you're using sheet music, it's a bit more complicated because the note lengths vary a little, but the concept is the same.
A metronome makes music mechanical. It makes the person who using them like a clock, and it make them sound like a one. Metronomes does not allow for the interplay between notes and timings. That is why when you get a miss time note it sounds great. Effectively using a metronome takes the art and feeling out of music and makes the musician a robot.
@@Mulberry2000 well, considering all the metronome really does is replicate the drum beat and pulse that already exist within the music, and helps musicians gain a deeper understanding of the music, it's quite unlikely that actually playing in time will make a musician's playing sound mechanical. You can still play in time and play with feeling, and in fact, a good understanding of time and rhythm will allow a musician to successfully adapt and play with that to really make the music their own. The better knowledge, comprehension and experience you have in a skill, the more masterful you'll be at creating the 'feel' you're looking for 😊 It also depends on the situation you're playing in. For example, if you're playing as part of an orchestra, accurate timing is crucial, but orchestral and classical music is well known for being full of feeling and emotion. ❤️
@@CutiepieTinWhistle Yes after i posted the comment about metronomes I took up you advice and for some reason it worked when i used it. I was very surprised it did. I tried it with a guitar and it never worked. I hated it. I have used it with a piano and it worked - well in a fashion. I prefer to use the artist recording or a cover song as form of metronome (that is how people learned stuff before in the invention of). Of course with a drum kit which i have, the metronome works lol. What found hard was concentrating on the tune and the clicking, it distracted me a lot. For some reason it did not do that with the whistle. For some people like to read music and listen to a recording of a tune. That is what i prefer for piano, but i cannot do that for guitar. I like to read music for the tin whistle also as i am using the Clarke book and going through it. Of course i listen to the audio cd.
Thank you Stephanie. This is a confusing subject, you did an amazing job of breaking it down and making it easier to understand. 🙏💙
Incredibly beautiful music and very interesting video.
Thank you CutiePie
👍👏🌹🌹🌹💕.
You really are a great teacher, you explain things really well. Thank you! ❤🤗

Never used one but will give it a try 👍
Thank you for the video and I hope this helps out people that need it in the future
Thanks👍Very helpful.

Hi, sorry do you live in irland ?
@@moisesromeroiniguez6684 I don't, no
@@CutiepieTinWhistle thanks
Does this mean we have to play the notes in the right order too 😂
@@deetee-uk that would help 😅 x
If you don't call it "improvision."
You are a very beautiful pretty girl 💗💐💓
