Subject: RE: Tin Whistle problems in sessions !
Guest, I can't bring to mind tunes that match your requirements, if only because I've never thought to classify tunes that way. You might start by skimming through collections of sheet music. If you can't read music, you just need to know that where dots are up around the top two lines of the stave and above, they are representing notes that will be played in the higher register. Note the names of tunes where these higher-register notes predominate.

Beyond this, there are areas of the net entirely devoted to the whistle, where you will get a better response to a specific query like this. For starters you could try Chiff & Fipple, which has a lively messageboard, and Dave Auty's Penny Whistle Workshop. As well as offering huge amounts of info, they have good links.

By the way, it's a good idea to put something - anything - in the "from" line when you post anything here, if only to distinguish you from anyone else who may overlook (or deliberately ignore) this detail.
