Wild Irish Whistle - Key of A
We are thrilled to announce the introduction of the brand new Wild Irish Whistle to our collection of tuneable tin whistles! Featuring a bright, clear tone, and excellent responsiveness, find out why this is the only tin whistle you will ever need. The weighted brass body is comfortable to hold and perfect for long bouts of playing. The Wild Whistle requires minimal air flow, making it incredibly player friendly and suitable for players of all levels, from absolute beginners to professional level. Listen to the famous whistle player, Brian Hughes's review of our Wild Irish Whistle below
Quality Materials for a Sublime Sound We’ve made this whistle from brass due to its excellent acoustic properties. Brass gives a brighter and more responsive sound than aluminium. The brass fipple also features a sturdy Delrin cork which helps to create a strong, clear tone. The fipple plays a crucial role in the tone any whistle produces. That’s why ours is made from Delrin. Delrin is a polymer that offers high wear resistance and longevity. It also helps to produce a brighter tone that will cut through any session. It’s designed with a sleek, stylish matte black finish which will turn heads at any Irish music session. Don’t let the price confuse you. This is a premium whistle, among the top whistles on the market, but offered at a budget friendly price. The Wild Whistle will make a beautiful sound from the moment you pick it up to play your very first note. You’ll be excited to practice on this quality instrument. It will take your playing to the next level in no time at all. Comes With A Wild Whistle Case: Free While Stocks Last

This was my second tin whistle and by far my best. My entire experience from getting advice from the staff to receiving my whistle was an absolute pleasure. The whistle is just perfect for a beginner like me.

I bought a secondhand Wild Irish in the key of D so it was a no brainer to purchase it in the key of A and it didn't disappoint. I love the fact that it is a bit heavier as less likely to slip from your hand. Lovely tone and easy to play.

Having played the recorder in my teens I had no problems with the D whistle. But with this A whistle I'm having to use pipers grip - which is new to me - on the three bottom holes. But what a lovely tone it has.

Having played both C & D whistles from various companies including Wild, I decided to buy this. I was far from disappointed. It produces such a beautiful tone with little effort needed and was just what I expected. Especially as I have medical conditions that limit my ability to play instruments that require a significant input from the player. Build quality is top-level and it will out live me for sure. A joy to play as is the Wild D I own.

The A whistle is the 3rd Wild I’ve purchased… the tone is exactly as they advertise, very rich and full, and the feel of the instrument really gives the sense of quality. I’m sure I’ll be completing the set soon!

I saw these whistles on Brian Hughes' you-tube site and they sounded so wonderful I bought the A and the Bb. They feel really nice to hold, and the matt finish gives a really good grip, justgripping gently. I'm so pleased my husband found these for me and I was able to play them straight away, so is the ease of the fingering. I've recently moved to whistles from recorders, and these wild Irish whistles are a delight to play with a lovely ease of bending notes and adding twiddly hits. I would definitely recommend!
