This is a selection of tunes - Reels, Jigs and Hornpipes
which are reproduced from
my late father's manuscript collection
There are a total of 50 Tunes at present, in two Databases
with more tunes being added frequently
A further Database ( III ) will follow with tunes in Sets, as played at Traditional Irish Music Sessions
( Garda Síochána Céilí Band - c. 1950 )
