The tin
whistle and penny whistle are relatively inexpensive wind instruments
used widely in Irish traditional music. The a penny whistle has a molded
plastic mouthpiece attached to a cylindrical brass tube with six finger
holes. Both are diatonic though accidentals can be played by half
covering holes, and are available in different sizes for almost every
key. The penny whistle is one of the easiest instruments to play
and yet it is still capable of performing amazingly complex songs. Penny
whistles are very affordable and there are plenty of tutorials available
making it an easy instrument to begin playing traditional music.
