Product Description
Our Penny Whistle in D is also known as a "tin whistle." It was a "common folk" instrument in early American homes. Our package includes basic instructions, fingering chart, and a brief history. Music was a huge part of daily life aboard a pirate ship and a good musician or shantyman would have no problem finding a ship willing to take him on as crew. Typically the instruments involved with the music associated with the golden age of piracy would have been a Penny Whistle. Unlike drums or string instruments, horns and whistles were better suited for long damp sea voyages.
