Musicians of Kbin: if I want to play a melody in the key of A flat, what other keys are compatible when choosing a whistle that isn’t tunable? (kbin.social)

I’m used to be able to just buy a tin whistle in D and that’s compatible with what all the schools teach kids, but I’ve spent ages searching for a solution to this one and I still don’t know what I need exactly.

The song / melody are in Ab.

Since posting this I’ve looked more into relative keys and it turns out that it’s becomes easy to understand when looking at a piano.

Thanks again to Hildegarde and PebbleGamer for opening up my mind to these ideas.

For anyone else, there’s a visual, five-minute video explanation here https://yewtu.be/watch?v=xbEer87lfdU
