Clarke's The Celtic Tin Whistle Counter Top Display of 24 traditionally lookin Celtic Whistles in the Key of D finished in green with Celtic Knot and each whistle comes attractively boxed with tune sheet and fingering chart. Made in England. Each of the Celtic nations has it's own instrumental tradition and each claim their right to specific instruments. The Scots will assert that the bagpipes are their national property; the Welsh the harp. The Irish claim the Uillean pipes as their own. One instrument played by all, and adopted by all is the Tinwhistle. When Robert Clarke invented the Tinwhistle in 1843, little did he know that it would become the perfect wind instrument to be played universally in all the Celtic lands. It can be heard in concert halls, broadcasts, churches and above all, especially in Ireland, in the pubs. It is easy to learn to play; inexpensive; and can be conveniently carried so as to be available for performances on all occasions.

The Clarke Pro-Kazoo is made from 100% selected tinplate and finished in Gold lacquer. It has a threaded cap and neck for easy tuning and together with a natural skin membrane it produces a clear and big sound that musicians will love. A Kazoo produces a pleasant 'buzzing' sound when you hum, sing or speak into it. The quality of the sound is very much dependant on the standard of the player, if you can sing or hum in tune - then you can play the Kazoo. A Kazoo is a member of the 'Membranophone' musical classification which is in the percussion instruments as the sound is created through a stretched membrane. This is broken down again into a sub category known as 'Merlitons'. The sound being created by a vibrating membrane.
The Original Penny Whistle. The favourite music instrument of distinguished tinwhistle players ever since 1843, this Clarke Tinwhistle can be considered the Stradivarius of tinwhistles. The instrument is still made of tin-plate with a wooden plug in the mouthpiece. Delicate operations still continue to be done by hand and, most importantly, Robert Clarke's traditional conical bore has been retained to give the instrument its unique sound, called “chiff”, and no other tin whistle has the same degree of "chiff" as a Clarke. The tone of the Clarke Tinwhistle is clear and flute-like, but it is also described as "crisp and responsive" by Bill Ochs; and "husky and sensual" by Mary Bergin. All these descriptions add up to "chiff". What Tommy Makem calls, "The great Clarke tone". This is what makes a Clarke Tinwhistle unique. The tin whistle is a simple, traditional musical instrument; ideal for popular and folk music but it is also suitable for a much wider musical repertoire. It is just as good for solo playing as in ensemble with other musical instruments; and can be played by children, youth or adults alike. Robust and easy to care for, the Clarke Tinwhistle has a long life. Play it... enjoy it... and join the millions of fellow musicians who have had their start in music from the famous Clarke Tinwhistle.
