Bat out of Hell.
O,K.,
Call me loopy,call me demented,call me deranged,call me perverted.Call me downright unmusical (o.k. Kevin,that's enough 'call me's').
But, today I bought a GARKLEIN!!!!!! (maniacal laughter).
For those of your who haven't passed out in sheer TERROR,this is a super high RECORDER(can someone attend to that guy who's fainted at the back please?)pitched in 'C' a whole octave above the 'school' descant.
I tried a scale, and now my apartment is surrounded by Bats!
Thanks to the Geneva convention,I see that this WMD is restricted to an octave and a half.There is a (whistle)God.

When I saw the title of this thread, I thought it would be a discussion of possible whistle playing on a Meat Loaf album.

- Tell us something.: I play whistles. I sell whistles. This seems just a BIT excessive to the cause. A sentence or two is WAY less than 100 characters.

Come to think of it, there's a bit of bagpiping in the BOOH2 album.BrassBlower wrote:When I saw the title of this thread, I thought it would be a discussion of possible whistle playing on a Meat Loaf album.

LOL! Me too! I was trying to figure out if I'd ever heard anything on that album with a whistle in it!BrassBlower wrote:When I saw the title of this thread, I thought it would be a discussion of possible whistle playing on a Meat Loaf album.

If your hands will fit.vomitbunny wrote:The sopranino is actually fairly useful.
I've always thought I had small hands (for a man, anyway) and I can play the sopranino, but it's an awfully tight squeeze. Since my main remaining interest in recorders is F Alto and C Tenor, I find Kevin's tiny beast rather frightening to contemplate.
Maybe I should get Generation F and G whistles, just to experiment with. Probably a LOT cheaper than the Garklein. And less likely to shatter glass!!!

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps. - Location: Lefse country

BRILLIANT, Nano. I owe you yet another pint.
(Good thing I don't know you; settling up would cost me a fortune!)
P.S. Thanks so much to all you guys for being so funny. I can't tell you how many times you've made my day over the dark & dreary months .....

Deja Fu: The sense that somewhere, somehow, you've been kicked in the head exactly like this before.

Seriously, i'm sure it sounds lovely. The high notes are really the best notes in a rec*rder. Nice and pure, not irritating (at least in a good recorder and someone who knows how to play it).
On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog!
