Julie Fowlis - identify whistle?

Can anyone identify the key and make of the whistle played by Julie Fowlis beginning at about 1:30 of this video?

looks like a Chieftain tunable in Bb

Yes, then again, Ronan Browne plays the pipes, and it looks to be his usual ‘B’ set, he might well have a Bb chanter as well.
Agree on the tunable Chieftain bit though :slight_smile:

I took a Bb whistle and played along, so must be Bb. There is also what looks like a Generation Bb.

Fair enough, at least we agreed om the whistle :wink:

Yes, definitely a Bb whistle, as Hans said.

If Julie Fowlis and Jenna Reid are in a video and you can’t keep your eyes off of the Chiftain Bb, you just might be a “whistle pig”! :laughing:

There’s a whistle in that video?
I’ll have to watch it again. Must’ve missed it.

:smiley:

Didn’t watch the video but can say there already was a thread here on Julie’s whistles and she answered herself about the whistles she played - it was an A Chieftain as far as remember along with her Abell in Eb and so on.

That was quite a few years ago. Almost certainly she’s acquired more whistles since then.

Sure, as was the video from Transatlantic Sessions - 2009. Julie posted here in mid 2008 about her whistles when she mentioned the Transatlantic Sessions. The whistle in the video is a Chieftain AFAIK.

I have seen her playing Chieftains, Abells as well as what I think is a Cillian O’Briain. I am sure she plays others as well.
