How Easy is it to Learn the Tin Whistle?

Let's face it, you could pick up a tin whistle or pennywhistle (whatever you like to call it) today and in an hour you could be playing a nice slow lullaby.

You could progress onto a jig an hour after that and by the end of the day, you could be pretty competent, enough to raise the wife's eyebrow anyway!

But, an as the saying goes, Practice makes perfect! In order for you to become good, you have to keep playing, listen to the music so you have it in your head and then practice it slowly until you have it, then when you think you have it listen to other's playing, does it sound different? Of course!

Once you think you have it, you can learn about ornamentation, cuts, rolls and the way to blow, create your own style.

The tin whistle is one of the cheapest instruments you can buy and one of the most beautiful you may ever hear. Theres a very easy to follow tin whistle tutorial at http://www.whistleaway.com, you could be playing in days!

Treble Jig $95.59 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A treble jig is an Irish dance which is done in hard shoes. It is also known as the heavy jig (as opposed to the light jig, slip jig, and single jig, and reel which are done as soft shoes). It is performed to music with a 6/8 time signature. The dance is usually 40 bars to 48 bars in length, but is danced for 32 bars if one is in beginner to prizewinner. The dance is one of three main hard shoe dances (the other two being the Hornpipe and the set dances such as St. Patricks Day and Blackbird), and is done by most dancers.There are fast and slow versions of the treble jig. The fast version is danced by the younger or less advanced dancers and the slow is danced by the more advanced dancers. The fast is actually to fast music with fewer steps. The slow is danced to slow music so that they can fit more steps into it. There are many different versions of this dance. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F.
