Perhaps but in that case they lost the wrong one. 'Thistle' implies the 
Scots and their caterwauling bagpipes. The local 'Celtic Dragon' bagpipe 
band tries to play Irish tunes every now and then. One octave plus one is 
somewhat limiting. Irish flutes / tin whistles are good for three octaves 
plus they have both C and C# so they can play in both D and G keys.

She does a great job but you can hear some of the notes are missing.

I can't say it's any more soothing but at least the Irish figured out how 
to get a little more range.
