Introducing the Jig Out on the Ocean for Low and High D Whistles

Music and Tabs (Play along with Scott)

I introduce the jig Out on the Ocean in this video. This is a very popular tune that we should all know. I’ve selected and transcribed one of the more popular versions of the tune, but if you are playing it with others don’t be surprised if a slightly different version is played. 

I walk us through the tune. We think about difficulties, ornamentation, expression, and the history of the song.

Select the video on the right to learn the tune with me.
