whistling in your dreams

i just woke up (most of you in north america will still be sleeping).

after about a month’s whistle practice both with and without sheet music, i found myself improvising in my dreams.

  1. is this normal?
  2. does it subsitute for day-time whistling?

a euro cent for your thoughts.

  1. what is normal for a C&Fer?

  2. only if you can remember what you played and are better at it after dreaming it.

Heck, tom, it’s barely midnight here in the US Midwest - some of our hardcore members will still be up for hours. Last time I looked, about an hour ago, over a dozen members were still in the chat room.

Um, I really don’t think the term ‘normal’ applies to C&F regulars. I mean, is it ‘normal’ to own a dozen or more whistles in the same key when most of us (there may be exceptions) have only one mouth and two hands?

yes, i now realise the fallacy of my assumption that north american c&f is asleep, considering the nocturnal ways of c&f’ers.

the use of “normal”, however, was intended as a provocation.

a couple of other thoughts.

are there any other early morning c&f forum visitors? certainly, this can’t be “normal” perhaps a new symptom of whoa…

my dream went from “morning dew” to “scarborough fair” to “drunken sailor”, mixing bars between all three & it seemed to work.

Well Tom, I’d say that it’s quite normal seeming as so many people here seem to have dreams about whistles, whether it be buying them, playing them, tweaking them, ect.
