Got a low F from Colin about a month ago, been playing and loving it ever since!
Recorded a tune using my uncle’s old piano and my new fabolous low f. I struggled a bit with keeping in time since the original piano track I recorded wasnt too good. I think it turned out ok though, and I hope you’ll enjoy it!
I really liked that one and I watched several others on your you tube page. The Goldie whistle looks beautiful. It was also interesting to hear you playing the Susato G and the Gen Bb. Do you think the Goldie is that much better?

Thanks for sharing.
Thanks. I think susato are good whistles, very much in tune. However they need to be played very delicately, and their tone doesn’t appeal to me very much. Goldies whistles are much more versatile and can be played both softly, and also be pushed high. Doesn’t seem fair to compare them though, since they’re two very different price ranges. My goldie low F is by fair my favorite whistle so far.
I decided to get the low F after listening to a couple of Brian Finnegan’s recordings where he uses a goldie low F. Also I’ve found I do prefer low whistles in the range just above low D. When playing tunes in D, G etc I mostly use my forbes delirin flute.
Yes, very nice sound and playing! You don’t hear much piano and low whistle, but they go well together. But then I think low whistle sounds good with many instruments in duets. Simplicity has its rewards.
I liked the waltz a lot too-it has a lot of feeling in it, thank you for that Krabben!
I liked the video. I almost started to type the tune on google search to find the notes, thinking this is one of those traditional tunes I want to learn, when I read more closely that you wrote it. Nicely done.
