Pennywhistle

The Penny Whistle came to America with the first European Settlers and would later rock America with the River Dance phenomenon and the musical themes to Bravehart, Titanic and the Lord of the Rings. Easy to play, Just Blow!

 

Free Lessons & Song Sheet Included

Tough Black ABS Resin Mouthpiece

Presently the video and DVD covers fingering on the major scale, how to play in minor and how to play jazz. Though it is taught on a side blown flute it will help on the whistle.

The Concert D Whistle is the hot one! Great for Irish, Celtic, Folk and Christian Praise and Worship music.

Plays in D major, E minor, A and G.

This Whistle is electronically tuned and came out in the A440 universal standard measure of pitch. I get the shop to 68 to 70 degrees so the tuning will hold as you play in air conditioning. It will be fine outdoors too.

The Blues Scale Bamboo Pennywhistle

By just going up and down the scale you are playing the blues. Small hands may want to get the smaller whistles. Because of its length it is a quiet instrument and requires soft breath control.

Hi Erik!
The Penny-Whistle Just arrived and I want to thank you so much! First of all it looks so beautiful!
But, most important, it has such a beautiful, soft sound, while being the most precise whistle I have ever played. Even Fast Irish Reels are easy to play with it. It is so much better than Feadog, Generation and even Mollenhauer!
Thank you once again,
Lennard

Hello Erik,  I've gotta tell you I love your instruments. My grandparents bought me one of your penny whistles for my birthday and I love everything about it. It has such a nice tone to it, and I love the smoked wood smell that it gives off when you play it. I've started a Celtic/folk band with one of my friends thanks to your wonderful instrument.Thank you so much for your amazing craftmanship.
God bless! Bryn Martin, Winchester VA. February 20, 2007

Dear Erik,Your flutes are wonderful!
When I encountered your booth at the 2005 Texas Renaissance Festival and
bought a pennywhistle in C I felt like I got a part of my old musical self
back. At the same festival in 2006 I bought a pennywhistle in Bb harmonic
minor and a Kiowa Love Flute and am immensely pleased with the quality of
your work. Being able to make music on the instruments that I've bought from
you has given my soul back some of the light that I lost when my hands gave
out on me and my dreams to play professionally were crushed, so I cannot
thank you enough for doing what you do. I look forward to buying more of
your flutes in the future! Thank you and God bless. Stevie Carter,

Dear Erik,
My pennywhistle arrived a week ago and I am absolutely speechless. I have fallen in love with it and I am having fun with it everyday. It is such a great work, and now I am gaining back my melodious touch that I had lost for 10 years since I somehow stopped playing recorder. I could not be happier.
I am positive I will get another instrument from you very soon.
Thank you.

Erik, I have had one of your pennywhistles in C for about a week and am totally delighted. What a sweet sounding little thing! I can't seem to put it down for long. I find myself playing it during TV commercials or even while waiting for web pages to load. One of the buildings I work in is a very large warehouse with metal walls. I get the most incredible sound when playing there. I've had several people ask me where I found such a pretty song maker. Hopefully, a few of them have already contacted you to get one of their very own. I want to thank you so much for calling and playing both the regular and concert tuned whistles for me over the phone. I was trying to be frugal but decided the mere pittance for the difference in sound was worth it. You've made my days a little brighter.
May the good Lord watch over you.

Dear Erik, I got my Starry Night PennyWhistle in the mail today! What a treat! I was so excited i felt like a little kid on christmas morning! The craftsmanship is absolutely exquisite and i love that smokey bamboo smell! Thank you so much for being so kind and patient with me over the phone I really do appreciate that. God has truly bless you with a special talent and we are so fortunate that you choose to share it with us. I pray that you continue to receive blessings, good health and prosperity. I definitely will be ordering more flutes from you very soon!
Music makes life a symphony when God is the conductor~
Peace be with you, God Bless!

Thanks for the Penny Whistle. I don't think i ever wrote to tell you how much I have enjoyed it. It is so easy to play, and has such a sweet sound. I have several inexpensive whistles: Clarks, Feadog, Sweetone, Walton etc.. I even have a whistle from Michael Burke. None of them play like this one. It has become my favorite. It goes with me in my briefcase everywhere. Thanks again. Another superb instrument from Erik.

Erik-Hi! The penny-whistle looks and sounds so beautiful! I don't know how else to explain this other than this is the sound that God has written in my heart ever
since I can remember. Playing this beautiful instrument has awakened a new joy in my heart!!!

God Bless-Judy McAdams Dec 27th 2005


Dear Erik,

I just got your Penny Whistle, it was outside in the box hidden by the snow that had fallen from my roof. It sounds great! Plays very easy and much better than my metal Generation one. Thanks for doing such a good job. I will hopefully order from you again.

Adam English, Gilford, New Hampshire Feb. 2003


Thanks, Erik -- received the two pennywhistles today. Love the decorative work on both. And these sound far superior and are much easier to play than any of the factory-made whistles I've played before.
