I am trying to figure out the “Snake Charmer Song” on my Clarke D. I am still relativity new to the tin whistle, but this is what I have so far; E, F#, G, F#, E, E…
I would really, really appreciate any suggestions. ![]()
Thank you, thank you, thank you! ![]()

We knew this as kids by the lyrics “Oh they don’t wear pants on the sunny side of France” (slight variation from what’s given on the link) .
You might want to transpose this down an octave. ![]()
You might want to transpose this down an octave.
Can you give me any tips on transposing. Do you just move all the notes down a step? ![]()

I’ve been googling for days and couldn’t find anything
Guess I’m lucky that I have such a good forum to help me out.
Oops, sorry. No, you want to move everything down an octave. That is, play the same letter name notes, but one octave lower. Those high notes go above the normal range of the whistle (the piece is really notated for flute), and it will sound better anyway
that’s not his bottom octave?
feck, whistles…
Just plug this into the Concertina.net converter and download the PDF.
