Pipe that pipper!

This Monday Kgo and I went to a local music store which is well known for its amazing collection on music sheets. It is located right in the first district.(more information below) While we're there, we picked up two tin whistles (or penny whistles) We got one in D and the other in C major. The way how to play it is very similar to playing a recorder, but tin whistle has fewer holes and the way how to play it is a bit different and one can change the pitch for it by adding more stress while playing it. Thanks to my elementary music teacher (and maybe junior high as well??), to pick up the notes for tin whistle isn't as hard as I've imagined, but to maintain a good sound and the right pitch and to play some more complicated music, I'm sure there are some practices required. I've been looking at two guys' channel on youtube for learning tin whistle and they are both very informative and helpful. And....following are the videos of me playing my first two songs! :) enjoy!

2) Blayne Chastain(我覺得他的演奏技巧比較好! 樂句較美, 不過也很有可能是錄音的關係所以前面一個人的聽起來沒有那麼好聽)
