No not ignored. I tried your link but could not work out how to save the document... Still can't

I got the same message as Jemtheflute - ...reached its download limit.

Jemtheflute I've PM'd you with details if you could send me a copy.

thanks

I've been off the forum for some time (busy year). Anyone know what has happened with this tour?

... now to dusting off my whistles and getting back into some playing in the holiday period

Thanks MTGuru

Hi,
hope you can help. I got an email message the other day to say I had a PM (don't get many of these!) but when I went to check it, there was nothing there.

Any ideas?

Thanks Brad,

The whistle looks great. Looking forward to wrapping up the tour for you.

I tend to use OXXXOX most of the time but I am also making sure I can play OXXOOO as well. I also try a bit of half-holing but that's a bit more of a problem for me.

I look forward to the reviews as well.

Thanks for these responses. I did do a search first, but came up with so many results for 'cuts' I didn't know where to start. One of the major themes that I am starting to pick up in my journey as an ITM beginner, is there really is no one way of doing anything. As a musician keep as many options o...

Thanks MTGuru. I did a search first but got so many responses on cut and fingers I couldn't find the valuable things in there. I'll check out the links you have suggested.

As a beginner, I'm just about to head into the wonderful world of ornamentation in a more serious way. I just want to get some insite before I head too far down the track. What fingering do I use for cuts. Some seem to suggest that for D, E F# and G you use the third finger of the top hand and for A...
