Acme Slide / Swanee Whistle: each

Acme Slide / Swanee Whistle: each

Often used for comedic effects, the slide whistle can also be used to add colour and timbre as a solo instrument. Aficionados of children's television will recognize the slide whistle as the voice of the Clangers, but just listen to Louis Armstrong playing "Who’s It" to see its musical possibilities. With many claims to fame, it features prominently in the game Swanee-Kazoo on Radio 4’s I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue, and on The Simpsons as Sideshow Bob’s voice before he found his own.
