Does anyone know where I can buy Irish Cello music
Hello everyone...This weekend I was at a friends wedding, and their family is soooo exrtremely irish, and they wish they knew I played the cello because they would have loved to hear me play some good old fashioned Irish Music with the band they got....

But now they know, so they were wondering if I knew any, and I really don't so I was just wondering if anyone out there knew of where I could get some Irish sheet music...

Thanks a lot....

Kevin

Re: Does anyone know where I can buy Irish Cello music
There used to be an edition called Kilmacrenan, part of what became Boosey and Hawkes, that published old Irish and Scottish tunes arranged for cello and piano, with bowings and fingerings by Beatrice Harrison. They had titles like The Bard of Armagh, Kathleen O'More, The Blackbird Reel, etc.

Also, there are always those wonderful Irish Folk Songs by *Beethoven,* which are scored for soprano with violin, cello and piano. He wrote quite a few of them, and they are truly a *barrel* of fun.

These things might be hard to find - but a little detective work pays off!

Try going to ingeb.org/catei.html for midi files of MANY irish tunes, or Coelas.org or celticmusic.com as alternate resources. The definitive source is a book called "O'neil's Dance Music of Ireland" written in treble clef, depnding of which edition you buy, either 1001 or over 1800 irish jigs, reels, hornpipes, etc.
Also, I have been collecting tunes and transposing into bass clef for some time now, so email me, let me know what kind of tunes you want, and I can send you some to get started with. Choose a format, .nwc or .gif and I can include a midi with the gif so you can hear the tune.

Well I guess I doesn't really matter what songs I get...The songs I was listening to at the wedding was Go lassie Go, and I am not sure if this is name of the song but I think it is Red is the Rose...But really anything you can give me would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks for your time, and i really appreciate your help...Take care...
