Thomas Balinger Irish Songs for tin whistle In this book you'll find some of the most beautiful Irish melodies for tin whistle in D. These songs stem from a long and rich musical tradition meaning there are quite a few variants of both lyrics and melodies. All songs have been arranged for the beginning to intermediate player. To facilitate playing I added tin whistle tablature to the standard notation. This handy form of graphical notation shows you exactly how to play every note-reading music not required. Chord symbols are added to all songs so you can play them together with others. You'll find the chord diagrams for guitar where you need them-right next to each song. In the appendix, there's a fingering chart for tin whistle as well as the basic guitar chords and a selection of picking and strumming patterns. Songs 1. A bunch of thyme 2. All for me grog 3.

And, there are 72 dance tunes and airs suitably arranged for the tinwhistle, including some recently-composed pieces and several unusual settings of old standards that even the most jaded musical palates aflame with the insatiable desire for New Tunes will find exhilarating and momentarily satisfying.
What's more fun than playing the tinwhistle? How about playing tinwhistle with a friend? Here are 38 two-part tunes arranged and composed especially for tinwhistle players. Presents Celtic jigs, hornpipes, airs, American and British folk songs, marches, and country dances along with favorite hymns and campfire songs. for those who really want to try something different on whistle, there are also Medieval rounds, Renaissance courtly dances and a complete eighteenth-century, six-movement suite for two flageolets.
