Original Swiss Cuckoo Clock Whistle. For Thalbergmad.

[pianowolfi]

See Thal, this is especially whistled for you. Just through my folded hands. I learned that from my mom. Do you think that this is attractive for prospective girlfriends in the SCCCA (Swiss Cuckoo Clock Collector's Association) ?

Damned clever

Thank you So you think I have a chance? 

[opus57]

Humm, I'm a bit confused. Why for godness sake are you guys talking about Swiss cuckoo clock whistles? Is there a deeper meaning in it? Please help...

It's *very deep* Just for the initiated. No unbidden spirit will ever be allowed to get this without preparation. The preparation you will find here

Very poetic, thank you. So I'm standing in front of a new mystery of mankind: How can somebody drift away from anorexy to a cuckoo clock? But I suppose I will solve this mystery when I get older and more mature

Yes. One has to be *very mature* to get the mysteries of pianostreet's off topic talk  

[opus57]

So you are "very mature"? 

[pianowolfi]

So you are "very mature"? 

Of course

What, you press them in a specific secret order and they weep Fur Elise at you?

Good idea, I'll try Für Elise tomorrow, if I have time But...only the first 9 notes. Otherwise it gets straining

[opus57]

That wouldn't be nice... I've never heard that man can be strained because of weeping a piano piece... I didn't know that this is possible

And may I ask you a question of tecjnical nature? Are is is possible to weep chords an several voices? In "Für Elise" his shouldn't be the main problem but I think if you want to weep something like the "Waldstein" you might got some small difficulties...

But I look forward for your development from a pianist to a professional weeper of classical music

  Lol I weep ( ) because I have no time to whistle

Btw whistling has maybe certain advantages if you want to do the glissandi in the last Mvt of "Waldstein"

[opus57]

Well, I see. But you could combine weeping and whistling and so you would have 3 voices: left eye, right eye and the whistling
