For an instrument that is so eminently suitable for children, it’s surprising that there is relatively little purpose written tutor material for youngsters.This book is therefore a most welcome edition and perfect for children. Lots of accessible material aided by a soundtrack CD to accompany exercises. There are some nice touches – basic music theory, whistle scale songs and also tips on taping up tone holes to accelerate early learning. There’s much more – but it can also be a good aid to someone teaching the whistle to 6 to 10 year olds.Good content and value.Whistle on cover not included.
Vinnie Kilduff is thought to be one of the best whistlers in Ireland; having played with the likes of Clannad and The Waterboys they must be right! Vinnie has great technique and this DVD shows you what he can do. Don’t be put off if you are a beginner, there’s plenty in it for you too, and for the advanced player as well. This is a DVD that has learning at its core.It features piping techniques, triplets, rolls, cuts, vibrato, solos, hammer-ons, crans and plenty more. A valuable feature is that all the techniques featured are shown on stage – performed live. This is done in quite an informal way with the accompaniment of Steve Cooney (Guitar) and Gerry Connor (Banjo).
