10/15/05 Welcome to Patrick McSweeney, who sends "Cape Clear. Chanter in C by Matt Kiernan, reeded by Daryl McWhirter and played by PJ"
Tony Higgins redoes a couple of slow airs on different whistles than last time (and with more practice time behind me): Lament for Limerick and A Stor mo Chroi. Also, a jig, which will be named as soon as someone identifies it for me. Thank you in advance. It follows in a set with The Rollicking Boys of Tandranagee, which I did recently and I thought this other one followed nicely. I'm playing the airs solo for a church concert while the choir walks in at the beginning and intermission (and the orchestra sits patiently behind me...)
Gary McLarry (viejomc) has a music site with yet more tunes available for your perusal: www.silbealabanza.com

No, Pól, I have no idea but I am curious. Anyway, I haven't played the jigs at church and have no plans to do so, only the airs.Pól wrote:Boys of Tandragee? For a church session? You do know what that means don't you?

I know The Wise maid reel. I didn't know about a jig of that name. I could see something like Fig for a Kiss played slowly working nicely for a wedding march.
