Whistle A While is the tutor for those who wish to teach the tin whistle using the ‘doh re me’ (tonic solfa) approach. The content is similar to Whistle Along but it has the tonic solfa notes (d, r, m etc) written over the staff notation. It presents a carefully graded selection of well-known children’s favourites, Irish, Folk, Classical and Christmas tunes, which makes for easy progress. Song words are included where possible.
