Possiblities I am very proud to offer this remake of Irish Tunes for Young @ Heart Cellists, Book 1! I am very thankful for the response I have had from students, teachers, and families, who have enjoyed these tunes over the years! Included in this volume are the following tunes: The Ballydesmond Polka and Matt Teehan’s Polka, CaptainO’Kane, The Cliffs of Moher, in Dm and Am, Sally Gardens, The Eagle’s Whistle, Dunmore Lasses, in Am and Em, Harvest Home, The Foggy Dew, Maira’s Wedding, George Brabizon, Hewlett’s, Tobins into The Irish Washerwoman, Southwind, Lanigan’s Ball, Mary Mack, Planxty Fanny Power, The Rights of Man, Slane, Walker Street into Silver Spear. The tunes in this book are very well known traditional Irish tunes, good at any Irish session! There is a link to the first tune of the book to give you an idea of what the music sounds like. They make a very good supplemental resource for growing fiddlers, are fun to play, and can be used with the Fiddle book of the same name. Please enjoy! Included here is a youtube link to a playlist of these tunes, played in their entirety by cello and fiddle:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1QxSodsD2nH6EPY-NIvVnJfcAMs2LPQW.
