Slow airs Played on Flute

I have been perusing through the Sean-Nós archives on TG4 ( http://old.tg4.ie/en/programmes/archive.html ) and it has some great examples of people singing Slow Airs, but I would love to hear/see some examples of people playing them on the flute. Do you know of any great examples of people playing S...

Resources for teaching Tin whistle to kids?

Good morning,
It looks like it has been years since any one has asked this question...

Do you know of any good resources online to use for teaching kids how to play the whistle?
Thank you

Re: Unknown song to ID

Interesting... None of my usual methods of identifying a song work with this one.

You must really like the song... I assume you are the same person who was trying to identify it back in 2015?

Re: Aspiring flute maker.

There's always the possibility of getting around the irritation that comes from international shipping by limiting any tours to only people within the UK.

Re: Flute suggestions for a wee beginner

I recommend the Hammy Hamilton Practice flute. It may be cheap, but you will be hard pressed to find a flute that plays better for less than $400. It is also pretty much indestructible. I have a couple of other flutes, but this one is the one that stays accessible in my house. My children (2 and 4 y...
