Summer Project: Dunmore Lasses

FINALLY! A new song! I had a very...very...busy...last few weeks. >.< Life... *Shrugs*

Anyway...I hesitated a while before picking this song. I have many others on my list that I should learn first *cough* King of the Faeries and Morrison's *cough*, but I fell in love with this tune and found a few good resources for learning it, so I learned it quite quickly. It's my second reel this summer, and I'm looking forward to learning more later. Maybe Man of the House? I really want to learn the Swallowtail Jig too, but...not a reel, and that one seems harder... :/

Tempo's still off, especially on the bits that give me trouble, as I tend to rush through the hard points... I hope my teacher will be able to fix that once I go back to school in two weeks.

Also, my dog made an appearance in this recording. She's waiting very patiently for a walk. XD

    1. It's not too bad, actually. I know it's been a while since your comment (only just saw it..I'm sorry!), but if you still need any help with it, I would be happy to post a transcription or a tutorial. It's a great tune to learn. :)
