The Double Penny Whistles of David Amram

I'm reading the autobiography of musician and composer David Amram, most famous for working with Jack Kerouac on PULL MY DAISY. But he is also known for his ability to play two penny whistles simultaneously, as he does below starting around 4:20.

No as impressive as Rahsaan Roland Kirk, who played three saxophones at once. I believe there has been a posting on him on WU within the past couple of years.

Good memory and comparison, GES! I'm pretty sure it was I who put up the previous RRK video on WU.
