chade2112 ::: Favorites Very well done, Ryan... I think it's important for people to understand that the majority of traditional music was used for dancing and as an expression of a supressed culture, so understanding the culture and the styles of dance has the potential to give great insight on playing the rythyms and understanding the flow of the melodies. I love how you're starting to introduce that concept with a dance polka. 07-01-26 13:34:11 _____________________________________________________

bowlking ::: Favorites Hey Ryan a have a small question for you....um does it matter if sometimes I play the high D during the song with all of my fingers on the holes, in stead of only the last five? I found myself doing it quite often, but I didnt' know if it made a difference in how the song sounded. Thanks a lot Ryan, I'm really enjoying perfecting this song. 07-01-31 19:43:48 _____________________________________________________
Pyro8 ::: Favorites Well, although I´m not Ryan, I´ll add my two cents here. On cheaper whistles, it doesn´t matter really much - on better ones, especially those with backpressure, full-fingered high D sounds blunt and not so appealing. 07-07-24 05:40:08 _____________________________________________________
