Tell us something.: I've been playing whistles since 2010. I love how varied whistles are in their design, construction, tone, and handling. Though I've largely settled on what I enjoy playing, I'm still a sucker for an interesting new design.

I really like this one, and I'd like to put a name to it.

**Edit: Yes, blindness is upon me. The tune is "Garech's Wedding", as clearly stated at the end of the video description.

Hmm. I must have been providing the forum members with a literacy challenge. I failed.

Thanks.

Heh, we all have our moments.

Anyway, it was an interesting link to follow and I enjoyed following it further and listening to some more of Colleen's videos and audio recordings. So, thanks for that.

Colleen's a great player, and very nice too! We Michiganders were very sad to lose her to Ireland...
