Ok, I waited for someone who has not started a party to do this, but the time has come. Let's have a St Patrick's Day Party

Too-Ra-Loo_Ra-Loo-Ral

Forgive the playing I wanted to be first at the party so I read this straight from o neils, which is cheating. Its the only tune I could find with any relevance to religion, its called the priests leap

@Mouse -

Yep, perfect Party timing! 

You played a very beautiful "Too-Ra-Loo-Ra"! 

 

@stringy -

Great Tune - haven't heard it before! 

You're doing a wonderful job sight reading the notes!

Thanks. I used my Fiddlerman Concert Deluxe 15 1/2" Viola  and the carbon weave bow. The bow and viola work well together. 

It was violin sheet music and I transposed it into the viola sheet music.

At least I'm not late for this Party! 

Knew I wouldn't get a chance to record anything again, until after St. Patrick's Day, so this was a last minute add on to my marathon recording session - and it really shows. (no kidding)

I hope that it's at least recognizable?

Here's my "O'Carolan's Welcome".

I took the first version down greg, because once I had played the tune I liked it and thought I would do the full tu e even though i only have an upload speed of 300 bits which took  me nearly two hours to upload that one, I now have to memorise and polish it.

Great playing mouse and Emily, enjoyed both those tunes.🙂

I appreciate you all listening/watching my O'Carolan's Welcome! 

 

@ABitRusty -

I really loved listening to both of yours! 

I'd heard "Kerfunken" before, but "My Love Is In America" was another new one to me. 

@stringy -

Forgot to tell you - since "The Priest's Leap" was also new to me, I luckily found a tutorial in 3 speeds on YouTube I can learn it from, by Jean Grimard, Violin teaching

Wish I would have followed your lead with Musical Priest or Parson's Farewell - guess I wasn't thinking when I recorded. 

Really enjoy these new tunes - Thanks, again!

@Mouse -

Very happy you started this Party!
