This is a great tune which is featured as the tutorial piece on this week's Comhaltaslive prgramme (http://www.comhaltaslive.ie). It's played by Limerick fiddler, Patricia Wright.

Great tune, but shouldn't the second "c" in the 4th bar of the B Part be a c-natural?

# Posted on March 3rd 2005 by Donough

That's my take on it too.

Well spotted Donough and Will; many thanks. It should definitely be C natural - so much for proof reading! Although shown as C natural, It's fallen foul of the accepted convention that when a note is designated in a bar it remains so unless shown otherwise - I should have shown a natural symbol before the C in question.
