Whistle Mailing ListsI maintain two mailing lists that pertain to musical whistles, whistlemakers, and whistleplayers. Whistle ScienceThe physics of music with specific information on whistles. This section answers such questions as "Why does a whistle whistle?", and "Why are the holes where they are?" Whistle MakingI make whistles of all kinds. I'm using a lot of PVC lately. I have made succesful production runs on a D PVC pennywhistle which were given as gifts on christmas. This section explains how to make a PVC whistle. Whistle PlayingThe penny whistle is one of the easiest instruments to play, but it takes a lot of technique and practice to play well. This section will help you do both. I am in the process of revising this section. Stay tuned. Whistle TunesThis section contains a list of penny whistle tunes that I like. All of the tunes were previously in ABC format which not many people know any more. Stay tuned. Whistle HistoryI'm always interested in the history of things. This section details the history of musical whistles. Whistle LinksChiff and Fipple - one of the best pennywhistle sites on the net
