July 19, 2007Gillian's Apples (2)Here is the four part 'D' version of the previous jig....more3minPlay
July 19, 2007Gillian's Apples (1)Here's a jig the title of which sometimes states the apples as being Gillan's and not Gillian's. As Gillan is just a Gillian with an eye missing then bad spllenig probably accounts for this. There are two main versions of this tune. Here's the two part one in G....more2minPlay

July 18, 2007The Old CopperplateThis is the one some people call "The Copperplate" while calling the one I call "The Old Copperplate" "The Copperplate". If you search this site for "Copperplate" you'll find the one I call "The Copperplate" sandwiched between 2 other tunes which I neither call "The Copperplate" nor "The Old Copperplate". I hope that clears up any potential confusion....more2minPlay
July 18, 2007The Plough in The StarsHere's a reel written by Larry Redican. I could never really get all that constellation stuff (or anything to do with the universe for that matter). The nocturnal lanterns all just look like dots to me. I'd love to be able to look up and see "Ursa Minor" or "Pegasus" or "The Sturmey Archer 3 Seeed Hub" but all I get are dots.Nice Reel though. Thanks again, C.(The rest of the list is going to require a bit of head scratching - hard to do while playing a flute but nothing ventured ...)...more3minPlay
July 17, 2007The Hunter's HouseThis is another of Reavy's tunes. I had to check in a book of his tunes to see which one matched this name. I then had to check the order in which my fingers waggled in order to bring my version towards some sort of approximation of the way he had written it.Hopefully this version should be close enough to play with people with better powers of recall than mine.It is one of Reavy's most popular reels....more3minPlay
July 17, 2007The Green GatesThe picture is just a blatant ploy to allow me to quote Sherlock Holmes when asked what had happened to the gates ... "Lemon entry, my dear Watson" (primary school, 1975).This is a very popular reel, again from my new list (thankyou).I hope all gates that should be, are now very verdant indeed....more3minPlay

July 16, 2007The Cúil Aodha JigHere's another one from my new list. I hope it's the right one.I've already played it as "Amhrán an Tae" (The Tea Song) but as I used a different key and a different name, I'm claiming that it is a different tune.It's a good tune to exercise the G sharp key although the wee finger on my left hand seemed fairly reluctant to be party to procedure. I think I'm going to play tunes with no notes in them at all for the next while - sort of John Cage on the flute....more2minPlay
