WHich whistle is she playing
The link here shows Andrea Corr playing Toss the Feathers but what instrument is she playing it on? The mouthpiece seems a long way from the tone holes and yet it appears to be a playing a high D scale.

Re: WHich whistle is she playing
Looks like a black Walton’s. I think the camera ratio is off so it appears elongated. Shes been know to change her whistles every performance as she throws the whistle into the crowd after the show. There were a few on eBay for sale last I checked (if you trust the sellers!)

Oh yes, now you mention it. I didn't notice the aspect ratio and indeed it does appear longer.p51baby wrote:Looks like a black Walton’s. I think the camera ratio is off so it appears elongated.

Wow, Hoopy Mike and Andrea Corr both back on the same day. #coincidence?
Best wishes.

I saw Elvis when I was pumping gas. Would that make it a Trifecta?

Re: WHich whistle is she playing
I saw a concert clip on YouTube where she throws the whistle into the crowd. I wonder if anyone could get poked in the eye by a flying whistle. A flying black whistle at a concert is hard to see. Still, I would risk injury to nab one of her whistles.

Was she playing "Toss the whistles", by a case?Tyler DelGregg wrote:I saw a concert clip on YouTube where she throws the whistle into the crowd.
