Whistle while you work!

Emily Eagen whistles her way to the Resnick Education Wing at Carnegie Hall on May 31.

A musical innovator who sings and whistles a cornucopia of tunes including original, early music, and traditional Americana, Eagen is a two-time international whistling champion and a singing, whistling, and ukulele-playing member of the popular roots band The Whistling Wolves.

Emily and bandmate Spiff Weigand’s own songs explore children’s flights of fancy, their dreams, and the way they turn familiar concepts on their head.

Joined by friends from the Wolves, Eagen and her string band also toss in spoons, bones, jaw harp, and jug for a sound that has audiences stomping, clapping, and whistling.

Emily Eagen and the Whistling Wolves at Carnegie Hall’s Resnick Education Wing [881 Seventh Ave. at W. 57th Street in Midtown; (212) 247–7800; www.carnegiehall.org/forfamilies]. May 31 at 2 pm. Free.
