Scale Exercise 37 for Low and High D Whistles

In this video I introduce scale exercise 37 for low and high D whistles. This scale exercise is designed to help us work on octave jumps. We frequently encounter octave jumps in both slow and fast tunes. This exercise helps us develop our skills outside of a tune so that when we play tunes we are already able to play the skill. The octave jump exercise also helps us work on the required breath speed (pressure) for playing the first and the second octave.
