The music of Ireland has inspired us for centuries. The DAD tuning is a favorite of mountain dulcimer players, and this book with accompanying audio combines beautiful Irish songs and tunes arranged for the dulcimer in DAD. Two melodies by the Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan are included, along with well-known songs like "Down in the Salley Gardens" and more rare treasures like "The Lark in the Clear Air." Standard notation and backup chords are included with the tablature. The accompanying audio helps you play through each tune at a moderate tempo.
