The tin-whistle player who performs on the soundtrack is a big up-and coming star in Ireland. For a tin-whistle player, I think it's an easy piece to play. though I've never tried to play it myself.
Re: Numenoreans, I think it would be more harp-like music, such as O'Carolan's music and the like. Quiet, regal, elegant.
I recommend you find a band called Nickel Creek and listen to their track "In the House of Tom Bombadil. The rhythm changes and the changes of pace and mood in the music seem to me to be pretty close to old Bombadil himself, although the pace seems to quick for his leisurely being. I think I'll spend my weekend looking for more musical stuff, as I rather like this topic.
