The tin whistle is a simple, yet beautiful, instrument, often associated with traditional Irish music, although it does make appearances in all sorts of styles. In this hub, we will look at the very basics, of how to hold the common "D" tin whistle,...
The photographs, taken in mines across the county by pioneering photographer J.C. Burrow, show the harsh conditions in which miners struggled for decades underground.
I have always loved the sounds of flutes and whistles. I learned to play the flute in Middle school and was so bad, I was asked to leave the band. I have to say, I don't like modern flutes as much I love tin whistles, Irish flutes and fifes. They have such an old-fashioned, simple, and romantic sound. The tin whistle is rather easy to learn. The fife and Irish flute take a little more practice of breath control but they both have the same finger positions as the tin whistle. Fifes started to be used for military moral-lifting and for military commands in the 1600s and were highly utilized by Napoleon. Tin whistles (also known as penny whistles, flageolets, and Irish whistles,) have been used at least since the 1500s. They were historically used by vagabonds and urchins in street performances but were not made of tin until 1843. By the 1860s whistles were popular children's toys and an adult amusement popular in Irish music. For those who wish to learn, I have charted out the finger positions and some simple songs to start out with. A lot of people have fifes and tin whistles but have never learned to play. Some good resources to learn online are: Whistle Away Whistle This (A really good site for hearing different renditions and playing styles that does not get updated anymore.) Tin Whistle This site has videos on how to play. Resources for Historical songs: O' Neill's Music of Ireland This site is good because it has the sheet music as well as MIDI files to listen to. Old Fort Snelling Instruction Book for Fife With Music of Early America by Donald Mattson and Louis Walz in whistles, but have never learned to play. The songs I have diagramed are simple and recognizable tunes that everyone can learn easily. All of them were written before 1870: Mary Had a Little Lamb is probably one of the most recognizable songs in American history. It was said to have been written by Sarah Josepha Hale (of Godey's Lady's Book) as a poem and later put to music. It was based a true story about Mary Sawyer who took her Lamb to school and the havoc that ensued. It was so widespread that Thomas Edison used the first stanza of Mrs. Hale's poem to test his invention, the phonograph, in 1877. Yankee Doodle is said to originally have been written by British officers to mock the Colonial commanders that they served with during the French and Indian War. The Macaroni mentioned in the song refers to the prestigious Macaroni "Club" in England which consisted of educated, over-fashionably dressed lads with enormous hairstyles who were known for their drinking and gambling. In the song, the British made the remark that the Colonists were so low class that they thought someone who had a feather in their hat was of this elite high society. The Rising of the Moon, was written in 1866 to the tune The Wearing of the Green (1798.) The Wearing of the Green described the uprising in 1798 in County Kildare in Ireland.Green was the color of the Society of United Ireland who wished to end British rule in Ireland. Rebels wore green shamrocks in their hats to proclaim their dissatisfaction with British rule.

*** Please read full description *** Up for sale is a customer requested 3d printed Seven Star Altoid tin insert made in cool military/LE style colors. Made with an OD Green or FDE/Tan Color PLA plastic here in my workshop in the USA. The choices for this item is a 3 slot, 4 slot, 5 slot and 6 slot organizer with all openings having a radiused front ramp for easier retrieving of your items. (the bottom of the organizer is not completely open as the ramp goes from the vertical wall and curves down towards the bottom of the organizer, see last photo) Not designed to be removed as they fit just inside the rim. These require a little push to get them seated properly in the tin. Not designed to be removed as they fit underneath the lip of the tin. For a quick video of the install click here https://fabricationfactoryco.square.site/tutorials I am now offering the organizers preinstalled in metal tins. If you need one Select Plain Silver Tin, Plain Black Tin, Plain Gold Tin, Cinnamon, Peppermint, Spearmint or Wintergreen Altoids tin from the drop down menu. If you don't need a tin or already have an Altoids tin select No. I have noticed my latest batch of silver/black/gold tins the organizers don't fit quite as snug as with the Altoid tins. I am working on a tutorial for removing the lid of the tin and apply a dab of hot glue into the hinge area to shore up the wobble. If you would like a custom color, quantity or customization please send me a message and let's work something out. Thanks! **** Due to the nature of PLA plastic, care should be taken to not allow the plastic to exceed 120 degrees F as it will begin to soften and warp. Items are built in an enclosed printer with ambient temp around 100 degrees F and while this plastic is stable for most if not all household uses it needs to be kept away from extended direct sunlight or being left in a hot vehicle as temps can easily exceed the 120 degree F threshold ****
