Can anyone refer a tune book with it? (Finally got the Mouth of the Tobique.) Thanks. alice in montana |

I've given the address of the O'Carolan page but there is a page of other folk tunes as well. Loftus Jones is on the O'Carolan page and you can download the midi file, and if you have a music software origramme like Noteworthy you can see the midi file as sheet music notation, and you can also print it out. (A shareware demo of Noteworthy can be downloaded and it prints out the sheet music.) Folk Music - tunes, lyrics and info http://www.epix.net/~lesley/caroltun.html#midifiles Helen |
