Through you, I rediscovered my childhood pleasure of playing the flute! I haven't played the flute since I was 10 years old, now I'm 41 years old. I have already bought 3 granted whistles and two more are on the way. Thank you for existing and for making beautiful videos for us who are passionate about whistles! I value and love you!

4 Years later and this is still super helpful! As a complete beginner, I don't want to get anything too fancy just yet. The Clarke Sweetones actually sound really nice for so cheap. I think I'll pick them up in D and C to test the waters for now. That said though, all the Chris Wall Celtics really stand out to me. The deeper, mellower tone sounds so nice. I'll definitely be looking towards some of these in the future if I take to the instrument well! Thanks for the excellent comparison, what a nice collection you have!

Thank you for the video. The favorite of my collection is an Oak in C. I make Native American style Flutes as a hobby, and that got me into whistles. I made a fipple flute in Bb, to play along with a Bagpiper friend of mine. The second octave is a little squirrelly, but I never really needed it! The thing about whistle collecting is you can scratch that itch without breaking the bank. Have a wonderful week!

Dear CutiePie, I also have a huge collection of whistles(almost a hundred) and I’ve been playing whistles for almost half a century. I developed a way/ method to avoid squeaking. Cut a little piece of drink plastic straw, insert a full one, or half or less than half into the wind hole mouthpiece and you’ll see the result. Your lessons are really great! I wish I had listened to them 50 years ago, but even now I’m learning from you. Thanks for you work and keep it up!

There where the hills are sleeping, Now feel the blood a-leaping, High as the spirits of the old Highland men. Towering in gallant fame, Scotland my mountain hame, High may your proud standards gloriously wave, Land of my high endeavour, Land of the shining river, Land of my heart for ever, Scotland the brave. 😉 ♫ This is one of my favorite tunes that I play not only on my tin whistle, but also on my concertina and fiddle. 😉 ♫

Just a tip I've found helpful to help with clogging: Colin Goldie suggested using regular (smooth) toothpaste on the fipple windway. I've carefully cut a piece of plastic (e.g. old credit card), rubbed some paste on it, and gently rubbed the wind-way. Then wash out with warm water. Previously had tried food-industry silicone spray - but this actually makes it worse! Also, for those with WAS, the Killarney Whistle (high D nickel) I have is utterly amazing. So responsive and clear in both octaves. It really helps me brush up my ornamentation techniques!
@dainkojebejutjub
@dainkojebejutjub 5 жыл бұрын
Killarney whistle definitely has THE best price/value ratio out there. It is sweet, in tune, doesn't clog, you can hit 3rd octave D and E without much trouble. You can record with it without any trouble. Only "flaw" is it's not a session whistle, but it is so perfectly crafted in all other aspects that you wouldn't touch any other for home practice or even recording.

Nice comparison of whistles. I have been playing whistles for about 24 years since I was 8 and have a few now. I stopped playing for a while as I started playing saxophones 2 years ago, and going back to playing whistles again, it hit me instantly the lack of resistance compared to playing a saxophone which has a lot more. I have all the Generation whistles in brass and nickel and never really like them, squeaky so don't like the sound except for the Bb which I like more. I have two Chieftain whistles an old non tunable Chieftain high C V3 and I find the high notes don't come out unless I push harder which makes the notes loud and I sometimes get low notes instead but the fipple area has started to show signs of corrosion on it, and I have a non tunable Chieftain low D V3 which I don't mind, except the bigger holes on it due to having slightly short fingers. I have two Tony Dixon whistle/flutes in plastic a low G and a high C with interchangeable heads. When I have the flute head on both I find I can't get rid of a breathy sound especially on the high C which I can't get a good sound on but the whistles heads are good. Another I have is a Susato high A tuneable and it's a nice sweet tone and I have tried its head on the Dixon low G flute/whistle body and find it sounds nice, but I really have to control my air and play softly with that combination or it just squeaks or squeaks out high notes and I don't think it is in the key of G anymore. I do want to get a few more and thought about a low Bb or bass G if I could find one but the are very big and I am thinking of maybe getting a Jerry Freeman tweaked Generation whistle which might be better than the standard Generations. I do want a low Eb though. If there was any I could get, it would be one made by Pat O'Riordan as he redesigned the mouthpiece fipple so his have a nice tone through 2 octaves but they are very hard to find and any I have seen were very expensive since he stopped making whistles and then died last year.

This is a great video. I'm wanting something a step up from the Generation/Feadog type. Can I suggest though, D in the middle register sounds clearer with your top finger off. It's a Boehm flute fingering but works on whistle too. It cuts out the low harmonic that can make that D hard to get clear. Also great for tunes with big jumps, because that upper D pops out effortlessly.

You are absolutly right about the warming and the cool down on the MK pro, i've recieved mine the past week and at first I thought that it had some issue, maybe some manufacturing error or something like that, because the sound gets softer and softer and with a bit of noise after a while, and that occurs a lot faster than in my chieftain v3 or my dixon, but as you have pointed up, it seems a common "issue" in the MKs, so you have to warming it up a LOT at first, and clean the mouth with a strong blow, covergin the mouth hole, with frequenci, and even so it can clog anyway. Besides that, it has indeed a strong and clear tone, and my favorite part: it has a sound between a low whistle and an irish flute (the side blow ones), and that makes the MK unique and different of any other lows out there.

Thanks for the reviews. Similarly I got a few high Ds as well, but mysteriously I favor Clarke Sweetone the best even though it could be the cheapest among all... My chieftain A and low F are on the way, the video just makes me feel so satisfied of choosing this brand. If I can get back to China in the summer I would probably consider bringing you one or two privately made and sold whistles from Chinese craftsmen. If such chance permits, I will drop a message for you to decide what tone would be preferred.

Sounds wonderful! Thank you so much. We were hoping to go to China this year too, but it doesn't look like we'll be getting there after all :(

Thank you! I was obsessing with which ones to buy and your vid helped me come to a decision! I love Kagome's theme. Please tell me you also have a vid on Kikyo's theme somewhere!

I went to a used music store and asked for a pennywhistle. They pulled out an old cardboard box of whistles and I grabbed a Clark Original in a beat up package for $16. This is my first whistle and I’m looking forward to learning to play. :3

My children bought me a whistle in York. I went to a music store (in Cambridge) and asked for penny whistle music. They laughed. So I walked out.

Very nice demo! Chis wall d all around best. I had a two pice walnut whistle in D that looked like a recorder but configured ax a 6 hole. Sweet mellow sound on lower and upper registers. Got from big store in Michigan ( online too, Eldsrly is name). Sadly in one of many house moves the bottom is lost. Tryed fitting it to various whistle, no luck. But suggest you try a carpenter or woodworker to make one using tin whistle as guide. Just smile and melt his heart. Like your fine vids and playing. I notice the chanter on your sofa, assume you are a piper too.

Also got my first tin whistle today 😁 think it's a Clarke? (maybe I remember wrong) but they didn't have it in d key so got it in C key instead but I'm super happy, thank you for introducing me to this fantastic instrument 😁

Wow -that mustve felt like a marathon! Very helpful video as ever. A while back you suggested a CW lowF for me- and you were so right!! Wonderful joy to play - even allows really gentle second octave notes! Unfortunately I did weaken waiting for it to come though and indulged in an MKPro - thus far probably a big mistake ( really lovely tone to it but clogs up like mad- contrary to many claims- perhaps as one has to virtually spit into it to get it into the second octave!!) But the Chris Wall whistle is an absolute joy to play- think I might have to have a CW lowD now!!

Glad you like it! Did I suggest to you here on KZbin or on Facebook? I've recommended so many Chris Wall whistles it's hard to keep track 🤣

CutiePie Oh it was here on KZbin- well before Xmas last year! ( as you know it takes quite a while to get a CW whistle!) Well worth the wait though!

Over and over and again, and finally this video confirms that I love how Chris Wall's whistles sound!! So far all of his whistles's sound is appealing but there is a waitlist uuurrrggghhh!!! I really want to buy his sweetbrass or celtic high D but seeing as I need to wait 6months, as a beginner what whistle would you recommend? Clark's Sweetone seemed nice here but I was told that Dixon's Trad was a good afforable choice for beginners as well. What's your opinion on Dixon's Trad? Btw do you think there's a different between Dixon'a Trad and DX004?
