"Excalibur" narrow-bore whistles

As well as the classic narrow-bore Soprano D and C whistles, the latest addition to our range is the Soprano D7 which, as its name suggests, is a Soprano D whistle with a seventh hole. This is played using the little finger of the bottom hand and gives the C natural below bottom D, enabling tunes in "modal" keys to be played, and therefore considerably extending the possible repertoire of the player.

The tune below is in the key of D Mixolydian and, without the bottom C natural, could only be played using the upper registers, which loses the lovely low "dropping" effect of the last notes:
