Author/musician Bill Ochs has been called "a central figure in the renaissance of the tin whistle" by National Public Radio's All Things Considered and "the leading tin whistle teacher in North America" by The Irish Voice. He has devoted over thirty years to playing and teaching the instrument. Performing credits include playing and arranging the music for the Broadway production of O'Neill's A Touch of the Poet, as well as touring the U.S. in the NEA-sponsored program The Best in Irish Music and Dance in America.
