* All tunes are transcribed as if played on a "D" whistle or flute.
Notes. We don't recommend learning tunes from written music - unless you are already an experienced player of Irish music. Notation is provided here to make it easier to follow the commentary, and to give visual clues to help interpret what you hear in the sound clips.
Nor do we recommend attempting to reproduce the playing of another player exactly, except as an exercise, to develop your style and experiment with different ways of approaching tunes and phrases. In making these transcriptions available we have no wish to add to the well-established trend of young players who sound like "clones" of this or that recording artist.
