This February's Coupon Code — 12% Killarney Whistle

The tin whistle, also known as the Irish Whistle and Penny Whistle and so on, comes from the broader family of firecracker flutes and has many forms and cultures around the world. It is now an integral part of a number of folk traditions and it is most popular in Irish traditional music. The most common whistle today is made of brass or nickel-plated brass tubing and has a mouthpiece. Many brands make these instruments and they are inexpensive because they are mass produced and they are ideal for children to start whistling. As whistlers get better, they become more discerning in terms of tone as well as tuning and the overall quality of the instrument, so they usually need a higher quality instrument to play their best! In recent years some instrument makers have started producing high quality handmade tin whistles like Killarney Whistle and they can cost hundreds of dollars per whistle! These companies are usually one person or a very small group of craftsmen and they work closely together, including Killarney Whistle.
