I’m a regular whistler and pop out a tune to myself when I’m out gallivanting. It’s a dying art. Any other whistlers in the house?

    No joke, I’ve never heard about the back of mouth / tongue portion before and just from a couple minutes of testing low notes with that I got a single time I’d almost charitably consider a whistle. Seriously thank you for the detailed information on what’s happening inside too!

      I was like 23 or 24 when I first whistled, and I think the advice you were given would probably have done it for me, as well. Incredible, I’ve also never heard it described that way!
