Tunes

           I’ve been a whistler since the beginning–just was able to do it. Purse my lips and my tongue and breath did the rest, blowing out tunes I’d heard. I’m amazed by it, wonder how my brain and mouth coordinate to form and express pretty darn accurate notes of the tunes. This is a collection of some of the tunes my mouth knows, a few accompanied by Martin, my guitar. They are followed by Whistler’s Christmas, a YouTube video of Christmas tunes it whistled in late 2021.
