Music – Playing the Tin Whistle – Tradition Irish MusicFor this week’s music lesson I have another tune on the tin whistle for you to learn. If you don’t have whistles you can hum along with the tune and learn it that way. It’s called ‘The Rattlin’ bog’.
28
Note: If you played another instrument in school I would ask you to go back to the tin whistle for this lesson.
If you need a little recap on how to hold and play the whistle, check out this link to remind yourself of all the notes:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2PNC49fyMI
Now that you are ready to learn the tune, follow the tutor on this next video. It is very well done and she teaches by ear like the way we did it in class.
