Pennywhistle, First Lesson, with Ryan Thomson

Includes both a video DVD and a pennywhistle! $29.95

This first lesson is designed for beginners with little or no

previous experience with pennywhistle playing. No music

reading ability is required. A pennywhistle or "tin whistle"

are different names for the same instrument, and one in

the "key of D" is included at no extra charge.

Ryan patiently teaches a basic scale and several celtic

tunes, including a waltz, hornpipe, reel, march, and polka.

The basics of fingering and breathing are carefully

explained and demonstrated. Tunes are played very slowly

and also up to speed. You'll be having fun learning them in

no time! Tunes include Maiiri's (Mary's) Wedding, Road to

Boston, Boys of Blue Hill, Gentle Maiden Waltz, Egan's (Peg

Ryan's) Polka. 38 minutes. ISBN 978-0-931877-46-9
