These lessons will be aimed mainly at improvers and more advanced players, although the note joining section is also definitely relevant to any conscientious beginners
The lessons will be a guide to tonguing, throating, and note joining, some of the most important and also controversial of techniques used to control how a tune sounds to the listener. Opinions on these three techniques and where they should be used varies wildly between regions and traditions.
The use of these three complementary, yet different techniques are among the reasons why a tin whistle, a recorder, a flageolet, and a jive flute sound radically different, yet are all essentially the same instrument.
The intention is to have general lessons on the principle behind each of the three techniques, and the context of why they are important, plus some tune-type specific guides for each of the three techniques.
Given that this section is aimed at more advanced players, and the scope for lessons is limitless, the content of this section will be guided by request. Therefore, kindly make your requests out to [email protected] if you want to hear anything specific.
