Dear Stephanie, Thank you very much for sharing your way to learn tin whistle with us. Your story meets perfectly to the recent situation of my 7j old daughter, who just started to self-learn tin whistle (mostly with your Disney song tutorial videos like Moana, Aladdin etc.) after giving up learning piano last year! She likes very much your tutorial videos and learns the songs alone by herself with your tutorials,, and to my great surprise, very fast and very good😊

My tip I used to stick with instruments is finding sheets or tabs of songs I really love. I started mostly with video game music! My best on recorder right now is the Pokemon Center theme. I have started on some classicals now. I also practiced a lot with the Office opening and Gravity Falls oppening.

I've played a number of instruments in my life and I like to think that "practice" is just, well, playing your instrument. If you don't like the practice, the playing, then what is there to like? I have also been at the hammer and anvil for about four years, and I've found that it can indeed become unbearably monotonous to make the same thing over and over again. By changing things up, taking on new projects, trying to make things I have never made, when I go back to those old boring projects I find that I've gotten much better at them than I was before, and that is what makes them fun again. Practice isn't just playing the same thing over and over until your ears bleed, it's just the act of playing in itself. So it doesn't really matter WHAT you play, so long as you keep playing, keep trying new songs or techniques, and most importantly, keeping yourself interested.

I greatly enjoy the way you present the music. Living in a very small town little is available, so finding your channel was like finding treasure. Also, while I don't care what people think, my dog is a different matter. When I play the banjo or guitar he runs and hides, but he comes to listen to the tin whistle. Very encouraging. As a suggestion, I would request a few more commonly known folk or Celtic songs that would be familiar to your American followers. So far I have searched your videos to find melodies I already know. That way, I only have to learn the tin whistle, not figure out the melody. Your playing is very helpful, and after only 2 weeks I am playing along with your slow demonstrations at normal video speed. Thanks for getting me using the nice Clarke whistle that has sat idle for about 15 years.

I think it all comes down go truly loving and instrument. Back in early 2000, I took up the ocarina. There was no internet and how it was today, where you can find tutorials and lessons all over the place. I basically taught myself the instrument by literally playing anything I could think of. It was a very unrefined method, but it worked. I actually hid one time while my youth group band was playing and I sounded terrible by I needed to gain experience somehow. They heard me and had mercy on me, although they could not find where to throw the cabbages at. Yet I loved the instrument so much that after years, I am a good player. Decades later with the bagpipe, I had the gut feeling that I could play using synthetic reeds, even though the traditionalists objected against it. But here I am today with my own set of pipes now, because I went purely off of my love for the instrument and my gut feeling. And besides, we all have Stephanie for inspiration

I was enrolled in classical music at a young age and did not have a good relationship with it. Since I've shifted my focus from straight technique to pure enjoyment, I feel so free and I'm actually improving more quickly. Tin whistle has been a joy to learn, even if I have to practice in my car so I don't upset the neighbors, hehehe.

I am glad I found your channel. I am planning on having my children (5 and 7) learn to play the tin whistle as their first instrument to play seriously (they have lap harps, violin and ukeleles that they can play a a bit on) i will be learning it as well, as I teach them. I learn to play instruments pretty well by ear (piano, clarinet and flute when I was younger) so I hope we will all pick it up quickly, your channel will be a big help! I totally agree about the nursery songs. When I taught myself to play piano I jumped in with pachabel's canon ( my fav) then the minuet and hungarian rhapsody. It was great.

I had same experiences at school and didn't pick up an instrument until I was 60. Started with recorder as that was what was in the shop. Husband hated the soprano, and eventually I picked up a ukulele and can play more than just chords, but still learning. Whistle came about because our uke group wants to play Galway Girl, but it needs a whistle, of course, to make it sound right. Having learned recorder, I found that once I realised there was a second octave, I could start to pick out bits by ear. Have had the whistle for about 5 days and reckon I can do this, given a little practice. Would love to play low whistle arthritis in hands and wrists means the instruments would be too heavy for me. Yours are the first, and so far, only tutorials I have found, and they helpful. I have just bought C, D and Bb Dixon whistles, so keep the tutorials coming.

Wow! Am amazed by how much similarity there is between your musical journey, mine and I'm sure, many of your followers. At 62, have been messing with various instruments since I was 5 or 6 with no formal training, just playing for fun by ear. Have collected and played mostly bamboo transverse flutes, and a few recorders since my early 20's and recently dabbled with clarinet with some success, but my mildy arthritic hands objected. Was a struggle at 1st and a plastic, Honer recorder, my dad gave me, kept my musical interest because it was easy to play while I was learning the more challenging embrochures and breath control needed for flute. Still love the mellow tone of my flutes, but a couple years ago, my sons gave me a cocobolo high 'D' whistle by Eric Sampson and I found another joyful means of expression with a great sound that was easy to play. Amazing range it has! Now seeking additional whistles to add to the fun. One of the great things about whistles, they are so accessible for a quick, session without any fuss and easy care. Your tips and tutorials are spot on and great fun! Wish I'd had access to them years ago. Really enjoy the music you are sharing, am learning new and more complex tunes and techniques. Had little knowledge of tabs until recently and learning to use them will help me to learn the intricacies of a tune better than trying to copy by audible memory. The visual aspect of youtube is an amazing tool, makes learning so much easier and faster. Thank you for your commitment to hosting this channel, it is a blessing to many!

I learned piano too, and I got pretty far, but I never liked playing classical music like Bach etc. And it was so hard to find music sheets for piano that was music I liked playing (this was before the internet made that easy) so I stopped lessons after 8 years. But eventually I missed that feeling of learning an instrument and playing music. I always loved the way tin whistles sounded, loved fantasy films and their sound tracks. My mom had a really cheap penny whistle and I would mess around on that a lot. I asked for a low d whistle so many times for Christmas, but they could never find one and they were expensive anyways. So now, at thirty, I finally bought one for myself. It’s a nice one and I love the way it sounds. I practice as much as I want, but I’m not worried about getting really good. I’m just playing it for myself, because I enjoy how it sounds, the songs I can play and how I can play by ear without sheet music.

Good tips. I use most of them myself though I am a recorder player not a whistler. I've also found that some people (like myself) tend to enjoy learning instruments much more when we're not in structured lessons. Music is an artistic pursuit and thus it is more enjoyable when you allow your creativity to flow rather than being told what to practice all the time.

Steady speed sessions are brilliant motivation for a learner. Often there is a set list of tunes with a new 'tune of the month' and it's ok to just turn up, play a few tunes you know and listen to the ones you don't. They are less intimidating for a learner to get started with than a full speed one (although they're great). I have really missed sessions during lockdown and always came away from them with a couple of new tunes that I was keen to learn.

The bottom line for me is that if I am not enjoying what I am playing, I don't bother playing that song. So that not only do I get to enjoy practising, but it has become part of my daily life. I get in from work and the first thing I do is play my Acoustic Guitar and / or Whistle (not at the same time! :O) ) and it helps me unwind etc. And almost without noticing I have gradually improved to where I can attempt most things simply by playing by ear. (Concerning Hobbits was the first tune I learnt and remains my favourite song to play). Thank you Stephanie.

I'm a rank beginner, but have bought several inexpensive D whistles, and I find the Clarke Sweetone to be the most playable. Perhaps it is because the holes are smaller--less air leakage, therefore fewer squeaks and squeals. Next I like the Feadog Pro. It costs only $2 more than the original Feadog and plays more beautifully. The Oak isn't too awful but my last three--Feadog, Generation and Walton--are uniformly bad. Treating myself to a Tony Dixon tunable whistle. We'll see how that goes.

I used to play solitaire while my computer modem warmed up. Watching a Cutiepie video, the light came on. Now I put my tin whistle near the computer, and practice while the modem comes on, several times a day. I know many songs, as I already play banjo, guitar, and autoharp, so I am just learning the whistle, not both whistle and music. So put your tin whistle where you regularly have to wait, and use the time to practice. And avoid cheapo music books. They alter the melody to avoid the copyrights, and even if you follow perfectly, it won't sound right. Cutiepie is both accurate…..and free, but do give her a thumbs up for her efforts. and just because she is a Cutie.

I've just found tin whistle through random chance - I wanted to get back into music (like you I have given up on many an instrument) so I googled 'easy instruments'. When I saw the whistles I realised "I have *three* of those!". I got them from my grandparents as a child and never knew quite what they were or how to play them! Turns out they are generation brass whistles in Bflat, C and D. That brought me to your channel - all the other 'professional' how-to videos were god awful, funeral durge renditions of nursery rhymes! Now I can just about play 'Concerning Hobbbits' and I've ordered a Clarke Sweetone so I can play second octave without sounding like a dying bird!.

Hello Stephanie, All is well here. The weather is amazing and you look even more amazing as always. Your little braids made me look even closer at your beautiful hair. So they were and are very much worth the extra effort it took to create them. Everything about you and your videos are beautiful art , from the way you look, to the way you dress, to the songs that you play, to the way you talk! Some beautiful KZitemrs are better seen than heard, but you are always such a pleasure to listen to... Your voice is like beautiful music to my ears. I hope that today's technology will always exist in some form so that it will allow others to enjoy your beautiful art for hundreds of years. Now, about your play by ear advice... After having played by ear many years in one form or the other... I didn't believe it was possible to explain the process in such a consice and helpful way, but you did an excellent job. And your sharing of your personal experiences are very much appreciated by me and others I'm sure. I'm assuming the lovely photos on the wall are some of your photography? I would like to add that your background music is not too loud or bass boosted on my phones headset. Perhaps the commentor should adjust his bass booster a bit. Your latest video and song is so beautiful. It sort of sounds familiar to me. Your shoulder revealing springish attire is very much appreciated and very suitable for the weather here. I have a question... Does the raised eyebrow have a special meaning. Or, is it just part of your cute childlike cutiepie playfulness? I think its just part of your charming playfulness. If it has a meaning, I wish that it was a secret signal that says... Burt Eastwood are you watching and do you love me. And I would say... Yes I do!

I think on that video I'd actually played something wrong at the eyebrow raise point, or nearly... But kept going anyway! I have a few little tricks, I can wiggle my ears, turn my tongue over, tie a cherry stem in knot in my mouth 😂 oh, and I can lick my elbow, haha. Always nice to have a few party tricks!

I went for a medieval instrument so I could try and skip all that lol… Thanks for making this video! It encourages us all to keep trying to make music! I’m starting live studio art sessions in my folkloric arts community next week :) i like your suggestion and agree that it would be great to start a virtual tin whistle group once a week... I’m such a beginner I’d be nervous to lead something like that. Any suggestions on how to format it? Is this something a beginner could do? I’d be worried people would be showing up expecting more or less virtual lessons- what do you think?

You'd need to approach it like a "beginner's band" I think and use each week to 'rehearse' a tune. Choose a tune (maybe one of my tutorials for example) and each work towards learning to play that easy tune THAT WEEK. Everyone has the week to learn the tune themselves from my video tutorial, and when you get together again, you see how you each got on, discuss the challenges you faced, play a little for each other, play together etc. If everyone plays along with me, you'd all be in time with each other too. Of course you could also do this with any video, or any piece of music as you all progress. I have a few beginner's videos that would start people off. But useful to get a group of newbies together first I think.

Thank you for such an excellent channel, I only found you about a week ago but with your help I am already able to play a short tune on a penny whistle that I have owned for just two days! In your episodes you speak of requests, I am not sure if you have been asked this before, and forgive me if you have, but would you be able to do a lesson on how to play the tune that “captain Picard” played in an episode of Star Trek the Next Generation? This is one of the reasons I purchased a tin whistle as I would love to be able to play this piece.

Thank you. So glad you've found the channel helpful. I have a tutorial for 'Inner Light' that he plays during the next gen, is that the one? Or were you thinking of something else?

Thank you so much, and you play it so beautifully, not sure how long it will take to learn but at least I have a great place to start 👍

Hello great video as always ;-) I've already made a comment on your video "add emotion". I really love the way you teach and speak to us. I'm a new beginner on the tin whistle and I would be very happy with a tuto for "Last of the wilds" by Nightwish. Some players have done great covers but I can't find a tuto... So maybe you ??? Please ??? And also it's the same for "Elan" by Nightwish too: I see covers but no tuto, and "May it be" by Enya (great cover from you on the low D but no tabs). Those are just requests, of course do as you want / can, if you have the time and desire. Tutos or at least tabs for a tin whistle in high D?!... It would be very helpful for me (and for others too I guess ;-)) Anyway: thanks for all and carry on like this.

If you still need help with motivation after a while I'd be pragmatic about it. I mean everyone runs into resistance and we all sometimes need something to reinvent ourselves or at least rekindle the fire. But you have to get to where you burn in the first place. You have to get to where you want it so bad you can taste it. There are things we all have to fight and there are ways to do it and we should listen to other people and watch what they do and get critique and more importantly device exercises. YOu can't do the latter unless you can analyse your trouble spots and break them down into segments and assignments. But motivation - aside from getting over all the inevitable initial failing and all the ways we can continue to feel about that unless we watch ourselves - should come from just wanting to play and play good, and wanting it almost too much. Sooner or later you MUST become your own teacher as well as getting taught. You must connect to your own drive. After all practice is work. If that kills you - you are not going to get much beyond having the odd good time at entry level. Which is fine btw. I have seen people not getting anywhere for a decade and I have seen some people move past them within a couple of years. Something happened along the way. More often than not it's not talent. It's initative and persistence. You've got to get to where it connects to your desires. Your mind must be buzzing with how you get around that next challenge. You must be fully alert. You've got to get to where the pipes, the pipes are calling. I say that as a guitarist of 20-odd years picking up the whistle for the first time btw. But I DID invent a flute as a kid of 8 on my own with no directions. And it worked. Most of the time. If not in a way anyone could most likely predict. My parents could not afford the pan pipes I desired so badly back then. I forgot about all that except for making the odd willow pipe for fun. We did have a guitar. So I picked that up. And did the work. These days I am forcing it to sound more like pipes, flues or woodwinds, on leads. So there you go.

Do you have a lesson that teaches how to listen to a song by ear and roughly transcribe it into Tin Whistle tabs/scale? New to this instrument, but have a wide variety of songs that would be interesting to transcribe, if that is at all possible.

You could perhaps try a slow version of the Fools Jig kzitem.info/news/bejne/raaY24uPip1_oIo but I usually recommend something like 'slow air' or 'Scarborough Fair' as something more beginner friendly 😊
