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 an expert on how to antagonize people.


I stand corrected, fan.
