Wouldn't a penny whistle player sound like a penny whistle

There were a couple of notes at the top of the first octave

that
had
the
characteristic penny whistle sound. Maybe it's a difference in
bore,
but
the instruments really sound different.


There is more difference between the bores of individual penny
whistles
than
between the average penny whistle and a recorder.

Don't be a bore, Fartingale. It was definitely a octocontrabass
recorder.

Clearly not - too high. I wonder if anyone has made an

octocontrabass
recorder & what it would sound like.

Ask Dickless, fan. He's the alleged expert.

Not on recorders.


Nor anything else, fan.


He's more of an expert than you are or ever will be. You're just jealous of
him.
