GUEST,Jiggers Pennywhistle Tab at YADT Site (19) RE: BS: Pennywhistle Tab at YADT Site 13 Oct 02


I have seen different fingering given for different makes of tin whistles especially for C#, C natural, D so I don't use tin -whistle tab. Also how do you know how long to play the note for without looking at the stave ?

I think it would be easier to learn to read the music.

There's only about 16 notes to learn for the tin-whistle and all the music I play uses crotchets, minims, quavers, semi-quavers, demi-semi quavers - sometimes dotted to give extra length. There are no rests and no Italian directions e.g. louder/softer, allegro,adante etc. So there is much less to learn than you might think !
