Its pitch sits closest to D, running a touch sharp of it, and the tuning gives it a genuinely unusual character. Played as a whistle it climbs a melodic minor scale with a raised, major seventh on the way up, and a little cross fingering will flatten that seventh to a minor seventh on the way back down, for a distinctive and slightly haunting voice you will not get from a standard whistle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat sets it apart mechanically is a telescopic section that closes off the notes normally covered by the left hand. With those sealed, the instrument becomes a three-hole tabor pipe, played one-handed while the other keeps rhythm on a drum. The maker is unknown.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Irish Flute Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48110273528034,"sku":"1GJrUWMd-CRPAc761","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2140\/2331\/files\/1Q7A9255.jpg?v=1785358145","url":"https:\/\/www.irishflutestore.com\/products\/plastic-6-hole-pennywhistle-that-converts-to-3-hole-tabor-pipe-by-way-of-a-sliding-sleeve-1gjruwmd-crpac761","provider":"Irish Flute Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
