Two fun Irish hornpipes played on my McCafferty mountain dulcimer. Excuse my parrots carrying on in the background! They want to sing every time I start playing. :) Arrangements by Mark Gilston
Thank you, Val, Gail, and Ariane. Ariane, I wasn't familiar with 'Off to California'. That tune fits very well with these! I might have to try to work it out! Thanks!
Jennifer - you played these tunes so beautifully and "easy" looking - but these tunes are really difficult to play!
In my former band we played these two together with "Off to California" as a set - I loved to play them with my tin whistle - they always brought good mood to the audience - like you did!
Dean, well, I created that profile when I first joined fotmd. I guess I've been playing for about 5 years now, and a year and a half seriously. Thank you so much!
Thanks, Gordon! I really love the tone of the McCafferty!
And Dusty, thank you! It took me about a year to get those triplets nailed down, lol.
Wow! That's superb, @jenniferc! I tried to work out Harvest Home a while back but never got those four triplets in a row smooth enough. You've really got it going here. Nice job!
Wow Jennifer! Your profile says you've only been playing for 4 years and just NOW getting serious about it? If that is the case, you're going to be a scary good dulcimer player!
I have played both of these tunes for years but never knew the names of the songs, thank you! You have a fine touch and you play beautifully.
Enjoyed you playing and finger-dancing, especially with those thumb slides.

Two old favourites very nicely played.
Thanks, y'all!
