Or even a Grey Fantail call could fit the description,
depending on interpretation of written notation of bird
song...

White-throated Gerygone might be a candidate, based on the 'pretty
whistling' and 'cascading' descriptors

It
was in a thick pittosporum bush/tree in my front garden (or possibly in the
Silver Birch next to it). I have heard it before, but never so
close.
I'll have a listen to the bird calls CD tonight and see if I can
find it. It was a pretty whistling call, starting simply and cascading
into a much more complex pattern. The call was repeated several times
and lasted about 2-3 seconds each repeat.

What bird makes a (loud) high
whistling
"chip-chip-chip-cheep-cheep-cheep-deedle-eedle-eedle-eeee"?
If that's
intelligible...
Thanks
