Whistle recognizing

Hello, I’m trying to figure what brand of whistle is this:

I still think it’s a copeland and I’d love to have one with this marvellous tone, but the problem it’s that I don’t know if it’s low, and what key it’s tune in, can it a D copeland?

I post this thread because maybe some has this same whistle and will surely recognize the the tone.
:slight_smile: you’re the best guys!,bythe way, did you ever hear this great theme?, do you know what movie is it?, bah! c’mon it was easy!

Sounds to me like a Shaw low d played in the second octave

Edited to add: after another listen it doesn’t

There’s a photo of a Copeland low A in the photo gallery on that website… pretty safe bet that’s the whistle used to record the tune. :wink:
It can also be played on a high D or a low G… but the tone sounds a bit too resonant to be a high D, and there’s no low G pictured in the photo gallery.

Sounds like a Mizzo A too me.

That’s funny. That’s the site that got me interested in the tin whistle in the first place–and it was those images that did a lot of it, making me realize that it might be more than a toy.

I originally went to that site to look at his article on rechargeable 123 batteries at http://www.tinwhistler.net/flashlights/123-rechargeables.htm and made the mistake of clicking on the tin whistle link. After the pictures, the worst thing was the link to C&F, where I became infected with WhOA.

Actually, I can play along with what’s there on a high D whistle. does it eventually go lower? (At least, I think I’m playing along with it.)

You’re absolutely right, and it can also be played on a low G… I’ll edit my above post to correct it.
I was play testing a low A whistle I had just completed while browsing the forum last night, and was too quick to jump to conclusions when I could play along with the tune on that whistle. :blush:

Woah, you guys can actually tell what kind of whistle it is! I just know it sounds bad if my whistle squeaks!
I also know that the tune is from lord of the rings!

Besides getting the whistle, you’d have to have electronic reverb installed to sound like that clip.
