Book Description
Thomas Balinger Irish Songs for tin whistle In this book you'll find some of the most beautiful Irish melodies for tin whistle in D. These songs stem from a long and rich musical tradition meaning there are quite a few variants of both lyrics and melodies. All songs have been arranged for the beginning to intermediate player. To facilitate playing I added tin whistle tablature to the standard notation. This handy form of graphical notation shows you exactly how to play every note-reading music not required. Chord symbols are added to all songs so you can play them together with others. You'll find the chord diagrams for guitar where you need them-right next to each song. In the appendix, there's a fingering chart for tin whistle as well as the basic guitar chords and a selection of picking and strumming patterns. Songs 1. A bunch of thyme 2. All for me grog 3.
