Music:

Well, I'm sitting here at the computer listening to "Chulrua, Barefoot on the Altar" which features Tim Britton on wooden flute, Irish whistle and uilleann pipes; Paddy O'Brien on the accordion and Pat Egan on guitar and vocals. They are fantastic! I saw Tim Britton live and got to meet him. One of my guitar students also studies the uilleann pipes with him. One of my dreams is to someday get to play fiddle and irish whistle with him ... maybe some guitar.

Hi Ava.. I just bought an irish whistle and I need someone to tell me how to play it!!!!
 
Oh my gosh!!!!! Did you get a book with it? Mel Bay makes a great book called Teach Yourself To Play the Tin Whistle... he has a series that does all of the instruments. It will get you reading notes and learning your way around your whistle.

THAT IS SO COOL!!!!!!!!

It's an easy instrument to learn and that's one of the reasons it is so appealing and fun to play! I have a TON of Irish music for you.

Get on my web site at:
www.quincyjamnight.com
and you can download some of the music there.

Too bad you're in Australia and I'm here in the States ... if we were closer I'd teach you how to play!!!!!
 
I guess lessons would cost a heap more if they included flights.. haha
I'll check out the site... thanks heaps!!! (and try to find the book - perhaps amazon?)
 
Lessons are cheap ... but flight expenses would be frightening!!!
