Clare Two Piece Model
Made in Ireland - Key of D
PLEASE
NOTE:
We are currently out of stock on Clare Whistles. Until our next shipment
arrives, we might recommend
Walton's Irish D Whistle instead (available in Brass or Nickel)
Clare whistles are made in
County Clare, Ireland by David LeBas. It's made of brass with a plastic mouthpiece. The
mouthpiece isn't glued on, so this whistle is tunable (see the notes about tunable
inexpensive whistles on our Make it Tunable Page),
but the mouthpiece fits snuggly - it won't slip while playing. The two piece feature (see
pic below) also allows for some additional tuning, as well as making it easy to carry
around in your pocket or purse.
Clares have a slight "edge" to the tone, giving
them the "chiff" that many players look for when playing traditional jigs,
reels, etc.
If you've seen the live performance or the video of
Michael Flatley's Lord Of The Dance, then you've seen a Clare Two Piece
Model before. This is the whistle that Michael Flatley "restored" for the Little
Spirit.
This whistle is an excellent choice for beginners -
it plays very well in both octaves.
(Don't forget to order a Whistle Pouch for your whistle!)
