In their music can be found nostalgia for their loves and hates; their battles and victories; the beauty of their countryside and their longing for it when they have to leave it; the fun and joy of their comic outlook on life - birth, marriage and death; as well as the ideal accompaniment for the vast array of dances. One cannot hear a slow air played with depth of feeling on a tinwhistle by a true Celt without being drawn into, and sharing, the emotions expressed by the player.When Robert Clarke invented the Tinwhistle in 1843, little did he know that it would become the perfect wind instrument to be played universally in all the Celtic lands. It can be heard in concert halls, broadcasts, churches and, above all, especially in Ireland, in the pubs. It is easy to play; inexpensive; and can be carried so as to be available for performances on all occasions. The Clarke Celtic Tinwhistle in the Key of D comes with its own fingering chart and five traditional Celtic tunes, one each from Wales, Scotland and Brittany and two from Ireland. The whistle comes decorated with a Celtic Knot and is individually gift boxed. $1.00 Shipping on 2nd Whistle Thank You Place a Bid!
