Would you love to pick up a whistle and play a little tune here and there? How about joining other musicians on St. Patricks Day?

This class will teach you everything you need to know to become a fully function, independent tin whistler up to a solid Beginners level. It's 1 hour and 30 minutes of video but your practice time will take a few times as long to begin to become a Tin Whistle player.

The class is designed to teach you as quickly as possible and helps you avoid the bad habits that trip up many others learning this simple and inexpensive instrument. You will be given exact instructions on what to practice and critically, how to evaluate yourself so you know when you are ready to move on the the next lessons.

Importantly, there is no need to know how to read music, no theory and very little terminology, it's mostly just descriptions and demonstrations on how to learn the "whistle".

The class is taught by Ray Hogan, a plain spoken, 30 year plus Tin Whistler who also happens to have significant teaching experience ... both teaching the whistle to kids and adults in person for Irish Cultural Organizations, as well as teaching other skills. "Doing is paramount to learning" is a core belief of Ray's.

You will learn:

• How to hold the whistle

• How to blow into the instrument

• The core set of notes (fingerings) covering 99% of all Irish music

• How and what exactly to practice and how to know when you are ready to move to the next lesson

• How to read the diagrams so you can learn tunes by yourself

• 2 Ditties

• 4 Irish Tunes

• When and How to take breaths while playing
