Information on Playing the PennyWhistle
The Clarke Tinwhistle, like other tinwhistles, has its own unique fingering. It should not be confused with the fingering of a recorder.
When covering a hole the pads of the fingers should be used, not the tips. (The pad is the area about midway between the tip and the first joint.) The fingers should be held flat. Do not arch or curve them. Do not allow air to escape from under the fingers as that will cause squeaks, poor pitch and tone.
Ages 5 years and older.
