Looking for easy tunes & tabliture for low F or low D whist

NicksterNM · Post by **NicksterNM** » Mon Jul 23, 2001 1:49 pm

I have had the F for a while just bought the D, now this one is a finger stretcher, both a re Susatos. Looking for good tunes to learn on, I have Loch Lomand down on the F. I struggle to read music so I am hoping to get the tabliture. What are some god tunes from Digital Traditon or other source?
Thanks, Nick

BTW I noticed on one hole of the D the hole is not quite symetrical, It seems to sound OK but should I return it?

I clicked on the quote icon below your post, which gave me a window with your full message plus 'on...Alberto wrote:', then I deleted the part of the message I didn't want and wrote this underneath.

Some good, slow and easy low-D tunes:

Eamonn a Chnoic (Ned of the Hills)
The Fair Maid of Wicklow
Port Gordon
Siobhan Ni Dhuibhir (Joan O'Dwyer)
Tabhair dom do Lamh (Give me your hand)
Star of County Down

All but the last can be found in Melbay's 110 Ireland's Best Slow Airs. The book is available with a double CD that plays each of the tunes through once.

Hope this help you ...
