Susato Kildare Pennywhistle - S Series - Key of D (high)
All Pennywhistles are diatonic instruments.
Many sizes are needed to play in all keys.
Kildare models have separate head and body- sections with a slightly tapered bore. Pitch can be easily adjusted by pulling jointed sections in or out as needed.
The most popular sizes are in the keys of -D- and -G-.
Whistle body sections of the same series are interchangeable with a head section of the same series.
Economical sets of whistles are available in which a single head section is provided along with multiple bodies for playing in different keys.
Longer whistles can be more comfortably played with Susato Keys over tone holes too far apart for small hands.
Kildare two-piece models include a fingering chart, thumbrest, joint grease, and a vinyl pouch.
