Walton's Irish Rainbow Whistle

Key of D

Available in Lt. Green, Yellow, Red, Dk. Green & Blue
(Full set or individually)

This is a Walton's Whistle - made in Dublin, Ireland. It is tuned to the key of "D" - this is the most popular key for traditional Irish music. It's made of brass and has a plastic fipple (mouthpiece). The plastic mouthpiece has become accepted and even preferred by most traditional players, due to the consistency of sound that they produce. Underneath the bright paint and colored mouthpiece, the whistle is actually Walton's very popular Brass Irish Whistle.

   There is a difference between this whistle and the Walton's Mellow D, although the difference is slight. The Mellow D has a slightly wider bore (the inside diameter of the whistle). This gives the Irish Whistle a brighter tone that's well suited for jigs, reels, etc.

It is played very easily in the entire two octave range, and has a pleasant, bright tone. Note that the mouthpiece on this whistle is not glued on, so it is somewhat tunable, to match pitch with other instruments or recordings.

The Irish Rainbow Whistle is shipped in an attractive clear gift box, and includes an instruction/song sheet

(Don't forget to order a Whistle Pouch for your whistle!)
