Carraigín Rua

Carraigín Rua are the first tune in this great set of reels played by the Bridge Ceili Band, I have not heard any of the tunes before, and I coudn’t find any of them here, so I ‘ripped’ Carraigín Rua by ear and I guess it’s not so far from their playing. I wil try to ‘rip’ the second reel too. Listen to them here:

Carraigín Ruadh, X:3

Tony O’Connell recorded this tune on his album ““Live And Well”, and I fell in love with it. I have adapted the fiddle setting to be more suitable for the pipes.
