BB's IRISH TRADITIONAL TUNE LIBRARY	
"The NORTHERN FIDDLER" (Belfast 1979)
Reels

===========================================================================
General notes:

(1) Comments in the N:N:  field not in quotation marks are mine.
(2) replaced
(3) Many of the tunes in this publication are "gan ainm" (unnamed or name not known). Since archiving such material is impossible, I have taken the liberty of supplying names where needed. I have tried to keep these names as closely related as possible to the musicians who provided them. Since of course this is not a perfect system, I am always happy to make any 
corrections that may be brought to my attention. Any tunes I have named are marked with an asterisk.
(4) Tunes with an A tonality are occasionally ambiguous as to their exact nature, i.e. A major, A "modal", or A minor, or some combination of any of these (same problem is common in O'Neill's collections). Sometimes the playback suggests one preference over another. I have done my best to deal with this situation but in many cases the result is an "educated guess"!
(5) "Coda" is my suggested way of bringing to a conclusion a tune that (1) is circular in construction (2) doesn't end on the tonic note. It's not part of the tune and its use is optional.

N:N: 1: The source shows measure 4 and 8 as 2/4 < cAGG > and < A,G,=CE >. My

N:can only be imagined).
