This is a great set for the beginner with little or no musical
experience. The book is an in-depth, slower-paced study of Tinwhistle. It starts out
teaching the basics such as holding the whistle and basic note reading in a very easy to
understand format. Tunes start out with just a few notes in the beginning, and additional
notes are added throughout the book. Also included is a brief section on ornamentation
(cuts, grace notes, trills, rolls, etc.)
This is a popular choice among Teachers that are
teaching beginning students - the Teacher can purchase one copy of
the Book & CD to use in class, then purchase the book-only for the
students.
You will need to have a Whistle in the key of D (Low D or High D) to make proper
use of this book. All the tunes are written in keys that are meant to be played
on a D whistle. Take a look at the Whistle
Section of our online catalog if you need a D Whistle.
