Thanks Glenn. I've never heard the tune before I got Ulli's Celtic book!

Thanks Marty!

I had practiced it every night for 1.5 - 2 hours. Usually I'll work on 2-3 tunes in that time.

Loved it. I only know this tune form Stuart Ryan's arrangement (which I have attempted but never really felt compelled to add to my repertoire). This arrangement though is a lot more magical and you play it with a lot of musicality too. Loved the improvised sounding runs in the middle.

Thanks Nate!

I love that part of the tune too!

Barry, that's a beautiful piece and your Pellerin sounds great! I've never heard this piece before but it's a wonder of melancholy and nostalgia.

Thanks Robbie. The runs were in the notation, it's all Ulli's arrangement. I'm just a paint by numbers (tab) player, but I did put a couple hours a night for a little more than a week into this one (just one night off due to pinky soreness).
