I found my tinwhistle (what was lost is now found) so I decided to record a bit of a tune. I can't recall the name of the second one; it seemed to flow out of the first fairly well.
In keeping with my attempt to upload at least one video per week, I submit this. The first tune I learned many years ago - it's entitled Willie Coleman's. The second tune, "Wheels of the World" is another old tune. Tom Hastings, my teacher, modified the ending so that that the transition to the reel - "The Rainy Day" - would be smooth.
Due to its (relatively small but still too large for YouTube) size, I have had to separate this video into three clips. Featured are: Brother Jim Boynton, Father Eduardo Fernandez, and Father Greg Boyle
My soon-to-be brother-in-law were messing around with a laptop today and took this quick video at my Grandma Hagan's house. We thought it would be funny to wear our hoods (Don't ask!). The ending should be edited, but I don't have the time to do it!
These are my two music students Michael and Brian. They are fabulous whistle players and I think this is one of the coolest whistle tricks. It was taken during our annual Christmas Party last December. www.ryandunssj.blogs pot.com
For my Fordham students. This polka is played three times: once very slow, once medium, once fast. This is not a "performance piece" but, rather, a demonstration of a tune.
