Considering a Burke Whistle and need some help!
Posted: Wed Dec 26, 2018 3:39 pm
Hi, I am looking into buying my first professional Penny Whistle. I have some Susatos and a modified Generation whistle, a Walton, and a Clarke.
I am considering purchasing either the Burke Brass Narrow Bore Whistle in D or the Burke Brass Session Whistle in D. I am leaning toward the Narrow Bore. I have some questions.
First, these Burke whistles are the standard D most commonly used in Celtic music, correct? This would be called the high D?
Second, does these Burke D whistles allow for tuning via a tuning slide or some other method? I occasionally like to play with other instruments.
I have included the link below to one of the whistles I am referring to. Thank you for your help!
