Maybe this is a dumb question, but I’m wondering this since a few days ago..
In a whistle in the key of D, if you play OXXOOO you’ll be playing a C-natural, but if you do that fingering (OXXOOO), for example, in a whistle in the key of C or F or whatever, which note I’ll be playing?
Thanks in advance,
Martin
You’ll always be playing the note one whole step down from the tonic note of the whistle.
On a D whistle, it’s C-natural.
On an E whistle, it’s D.
On a G whistle, it’s F-natural.
On a C whistle, it’s B-flat.
Make sense?

On a C whistle you would be playing B Flat and on an F whistle E Flat
Of course, that makes sense. Thank you very much!!
