Pennywhistle Tunes

At the pennywhistle class in Los Lunas this week, I had printed out some music for the students with pennywhistle fingering notation, as most of the students have no knowledge of how to read musical score. One of the parents asked if I could give them a couple more songs with the fingering, to which I eagerly agreed. So . . . here’s a couple of songs for everyone to use who is learning the pennywhistle – please enjoy. If your friends ask you where you got the music from, please tell them “Medieval Living”!!! I will be posting more during the coming weeks, but wanted to get a couple of songs on the site as promised. I will add a “Music” page to the blog site as a common file location.

The Ashgrove This is the tune that I gave to the students at the class . . . a well known song, the fingering is simple and the tune easy to learn.

A Fig For A Kiss One of my favorite tunes I first heard played by Eileen Ivers from her Crossing the Bridge album.

Si Beag Si More A standard among Irish music enthusiasts!

I hope you enjoy these.
