oh my goodness but you are a genius - 21 seconds in and I've got a loud whistle - thanks for actually demonstrating how to use it - the last video I watched just showed a man stick the whistle in his mouth and get a sound without showing how he did it - thanks!!!
I don’t know what was different about your tutorial but I get it now!! Thank you!! Still have to practice but I’m making the right noise!! Thanks again!
You saved my life ! Your explanation was so simple, demonstrative and precise, that I could not believe it when I succeed at the first try after watching your video ! (After hours and hours of sputering like an idiot, while reading how to whistle with this!) Thank you !
This is a perfect tutorial! It helped me to understand this in five minutes flat. Otherwise I was struggling, making stupid noises with my whistle. Thank you so much, you’re the best!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 yay best tutorial ever!! You wonderful lady you!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I mastered a whistle before the end of the video! I was so shocked I thought you was making the sound but it was me!! 🤣🤣🙏🏼
Joanne, watched your video and one other persons and made a huge difference in how fast I was able to whistle. actually, was able to whistle the first day. now, just putting tones together, which is the hard part.
my brother once told me of some african drummers at covent garden , he said they were whistling like birds and it was amazing . im not very good at whistling and have always wanted a good whistle for when i drum on the street . hopefully this will do it . apologies to all the shepherds for misuse of the logan whistle
Thank you for sharing this and no, not misuse at all! I'm sure the whistle will sound amazing with the drum. Logan Whistles have actually been used in the orchestra of The Royal Opera House in London (for a ballet called The Wind) so anything goes :) They're used to communicate with trained birds of prey, to direct cranes and for a whole range of outdoor sports too as it's easy to create a 'language'. They've been perfected to be heard over extreme distances with herding dogs but they're for us all to enjoy.
I know this is ages old, but I've just got my whistle and actually make some pretty good whistles but getting the right note consistently is a problem. My target is to play Silent Night by Christmas day and it's currently getting to the end of September!
The whistle being used in this video is our anodised aluminium Logan A1 whistle. We do also make whistles in solid brass and in stainless steel - they add more nuance to the tones and power when you need it.
the whistle I'm using is the A1 anodised aluminium which is lightweight. We also offer stainless steel (Logan 304) and solid brass whistles (Supreme, Turbo or Ventura models) which can have even more power and nuance to their sounds
Blowing air up through the whistle creates higher sharper sounds and directing air down through the whistle creates the lower tones. Try whistling a tune without the whistle and notice how your tongue moves up and down. That automatically shifts the position of the whistle too so you can play tunes. Just think of something really familiar and try to whistle that
make sure you are sealing the back of the whistle hard against your tongue (push the tab and push your tongue to the whistle) and then breathe from your chest. Try in front of a mirror to make sure you are not covering the slot with your lips or conversely holding it too far out of your mouth. Tilt the whistle up to exaggerate the space underneath to begin with so air can into the bottom hole too. And breathe!
You may not be sealing the back for the whistle - the tongue pushes against the whistle and the whistle against the tongue to create the seal - maybe push it onto the tip of your tongue (holding the tab) to begin with. Then don't be afraid to draw the whistle into your mouth and hold it in place with your lips. And breathe from you chest. - like you're blowing up a balloon :)

This is a life skill I've always wanted but no one could teach me, thank you! Finally got it
You saved my life ! Your explanation was so simple, demonstrative and precise, that I could not believe it when I succeed at the first try after watching your video ! (After hours and hours of sputering like an idiot, while reading how to whistle with this!) Thank you !
First person I could actually understand, very well explained.
Great demonstration...it will take practice to whistle consistently but now I get it.
Omg I have been trying to watch videos and learn how to use this for 4+ months and after your explanation could instantly do it
fantastic! well done. So glad it helped
This is a perfect tutorial! It helped me to understand this in five minutes flat. Otherwise I was struggling, making stupid noises with my whistle. Thank you so much, you’re the best!
Glad it helped! Thanks for the feedback
Fabulous video and I love my whistle!!!! Thank you.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 yay best tutorial ever!! You wonderful lady you!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I mastered a whistle before the end of the video!
I was so shocked I thought you was making the sound but it was me!! 🤣🤣🙏🏼
Great job! That's what we like to hear...
Practice Practice Practice. While your alone driving in the car so you don't cause any suicides.

Nice
I can almost feel your thoughts entering my brain and registering just the right way. Thank you. By the way how would you like to do a voice over 😃

Hello, That sound is so good. What type of metal is this pipe made of. stainless steel or aluminium ? Or others ? Thanks for this video.
The whistle being used in this video is our anodised aluminium Logan A1 whistle. We do also make whistles in solid brass and in stainless steel - they add more nuance to the tones and power when you need it.

I can’t manage how to do the sound at 0:11 and lower tones in general
Blowing air up through the whistle creates higher sharper sounds and directing air down through the whistle creates the lower tones. Try whistling a tune without the whistle and notice how your tongue moves up and down. That automatically shifts the position of the whistle too so you can play tunes. Just think of something really familiar and try to whistle that
Why can't I still do this?
Could you use this as a bird whistle?
Yes, often used with falcons for example
Day 93 and i still sound like an injured crow
good laugh
what sort of whitsle are you using?
It's the Logan A1 whistle Alex
I still can't do it.
make sure you are sealing the back of the whistle hard against your tongue (push the tab and push your tongue to the whistle) and then breathe from your chest. Try in front of a mirror to make sure you are not covering the slot with your lips or conversely holding it too far out of your mouth. Tilt the whistle up to exaggerate the space underneath to begin with so air can into the bottom hole too. And breathe!
experienced blower she is
I'm still just blowing air and spit lol HELP !!!!!!!😢😢😢😢😂
Can't get use to ours 🤔😂😂
Day 71 and still not a peep from mine
You may not be sealing the back for the whistle - the tongue pushes against the whistle and the whistle against the tongue to create the seal - maybe push it onto the tip of your tongue (holding the tab) to begin with. Then don't be afraid to draw the whistle into your mouth and hold it in place with your lips. And breathe from you chest. - like you're blowing up a balloon :)
@@ThebordercollieCoUk I'm still trying......and failing! About half the time now I can get a single note but am unable to vary it at all.
🤣🤣🤣
