The Essential Tin Whistle Toolbox

Summary: Where is the songs to play?
Review: While this particular book has tons of information on ornamentation of whistle music, it doesn't include none of the full song. So, in a way, you became proficient in Irish music nuances but at the same time there are no song to test your mastery. Author spends more than 60 pages on music theory, Irish history, breathing, modes of octave and stuff like this, in short, all you don't really need to play whistle music. At the same time he refers you to his web site where you can download (for fee of course) some songs with MP3 files, so you can polish whatever you learned in this book on real songs. If author would include the above information in his book I would give his 5 stars. I just dislike when someone starts to teach me something I really don't need (like music theory) in a book that meant to teach you whistle music.
