    AS an Irish man that play Irish trad, it fills my heart with joy to see and hear people of other countries play Irish trad and play it with the same passion as us Irish.

      I agree :) My dad was in a trad band (called shamrog) for many years when i was a youngster (in the 90s) but he sadly passed in 2001. I was brought up in the trad environment and i play the whistle myself... I just love these guys. I cant believe how amazing they are... and from Mallorca: One of my favorite places and my dads too. I'm listening to all their videos right now :D :D :D

    8 yrs ago I heard this rendition of hector the hero and I made up my mind to get myself a tin whistle. Begged my mom to get me a tin whistle and had to source from other friends since this music instrument is rare where I'm from. Got myself a cheap acorn whistle and played till the whistle itself got seasoned. Finally grown up and saved myself enough money to get a low whistle. Hope I can get as good as you guys one day

    First one is usually called "Tommy People's". It's not a composition of his and has many different names.
    And the second is the "Roscommon".

    Chicos, muy guays los vídeos, lo hacéis genial. Una pregunta, ¿hay algún sitio en el que poder encontrar canciones para low whistle? Aparte de las que tenéis subidas, claro. Soy gaitero y dulzainero, y quiero extrapolar todo lo que sé al low whistle que acabo de adquirir, pero me gustaría tener algún bagaje de canciones hechas para ello. Gracias, y seguid así!
