The Celtic

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.
Each of the Celtic nations has its own
instrumental tradition and each claim their
right to specific instruments. The Scots will
assert that the bagpipes are their national
property; the Welsh the harp. The Irish
claim the Uillean pipes as their own.
One instrument played by all, and adopted
by all is the tinwhistle.
Included in the box:
• Celtic Tinwhistle is supplied in
the key of D
• Tune sheet with traditional songs
An authentic sound
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 learn to play; inexpensive; and
can be conveniently carried so as to be
available for performances on all occasions.
