Introducing The Cup of Tea (Reel) for Low and High D Whistles

In this video I introduce The Cup of Tea. This is a reel that is a great deal of fun to play. It also presents enough challenges for us that learning it will help us develop and enhance our skills in playing the whistle. I walk us through each part of the tune. In the Play Along with Scott section I play through the entire tune without ornamentation. I share my thoughts on difficulties you may experience, as well as ornamentation. At the end of the video I share what I found on the history of the tune.

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