(personal ad for a whistle)
I’m looking for a whistle that:
Is pitched in Low D but has the size of Soprano D, with the high D finger spacing. It needs an exceptionally strong low end and a magnificent high end as well and must transistion easily between octaves and be very responsive and easy to blow. It must be made of nickel, but not be slippery. It must be tunable. It must sound rich and full of overtones. It must not have high air requirements, and it must have moderate backpressure. It must come apart into 3 pieces. It must come in a fitted wooden engraved case that locks. It must have a lifetime warranty and it must cost less than $20 for the entire thing.
