Medieval Tunes Vol. 1 for Tin Whistle (PDF + Audio) is a curated collection of twelve medieval pieces and songs crafted to work beautifully on the whistle — and flexible enough to be used with any melodic or harmonic instrument when you want to build duos, accompaniment parts, or small ensemble textures.
Instead of offering “plain transcriptions only”, this volume focuses on making medieval repertoire playable, musical, and creatively usable today, while still giving you guidance that respects historical character.
