but it wasn't until IL professional

she could whistle better than others.
So she began to study breathing. so
important in whistling ms in singing.
She studied the piano too and claims
that this developed her artistic ideals
so that she determined To mike her
gift for whistling II real art and not

Miss Pagan uses two fingers whc,,

Certain it is, that she can whistle

says she can whistle better and easier
