Preface

I came to Irish session music only quite recently in my musical lifetime. It became clear tome very quickly that it can be very difficult for beginning players to bootstrap themselvesinto becoming participating members of a session. So often the tunes go by so quickly, andit seems that nobody knows the names.

What I felt was needed was a book of the tunes played in our session, in the order that theyare commonly played. Many times I have watched beginners, (myself included)desperately flipping through books trying to find a tune being played, only to have thegroup move on to another tune just when its been found in the book, or worse, neverfinding it at all so that there isn’t a chance that they will be able to play it the followingweek.

Using this book and some practice, new players should be able to become participatingmembers of the session in just a few weeks.

Acknowledgement

Thank you to everyone at the Blarney Stone Pub and at the House of Ireland in Balboa Parkfor welcoming me into the world of Irish session music.

A special thank you to Nishi for helping kick this effort off by suggesting the initial list oftunes.

Thank you to Steve Glass for his wonderful transcriptions of interesting tunes.

Thank you to Marci Bunescu and Dennis Buskirk of Cobblestone for providing me with acomprehensive list of tunes for dancers.

Production Notes

This book was produced entirely on a Macintosh using both hand transcriptions and .abctune sources from the Internet, mostly from Henrik Norbeck’s ABC archives. The .abc fileswere brought in to BarFly 1.0d23, which generated the notation. The resulting graphicswere then pasted into Microsoft Word.
