Scale Exercise 14 for D Whistle in D and G (Jig Rhythm)

In this video I’ll introduce scale exercise 14.

This exercise will help us develop our abilities in playing the tin whistle in all the usual ways: dexterity, speed, ornamentation, expression, and more.

I crafted this exercise based on a portion of the hornpipe style. This means you can also use this exercise to practice the rhythm of a hornpipe tune. It won’t feel exactly like a hornpipe because all the elements aren’t there, but it will be helpful because of the rhythm.
