Details:
Most people don''t think of the human whistle as a musical instrument, but it has been my main musical instrument all my life. I support my whistling with my own musical arrangements using guitar, piano, or keyboard accompaniment. My arrangements are "for a whistler by a whistler." I have composed 40 pieces for whistling that have a wide variety of styles - classical to jazz and blues. my CD "Milt Briggs champion Whistler" has 9 of my original pieces for whistling and 9 traditional tunes.

I am a maverick in the whistling community because I am self accompanied and I always perform with my own live accompaniement. It is my signature.

I learned to whistle when I was 4 years old. When I was 10 years old I began performing with the choir of the small country school I attended. the choir would sing the verse and I would whistle the chorus. We performed at other schools and elsewhere in the community. People loved it. Amazingly, from the time I was 12 I didn''t whistle for an audience until I was 41 years old. Working a day job and raising a family took up my energies. I am now devoting more time to performing and recording.

As a performer I do a wide variety of gigs. I have performed for preschool age children all the way through retirees. I sometimes weave whistling into musical stories for children and adults. Other times I do straight musical performances.
