    I was wondering if anyone has the sheet music with chords and melody to O'Carolines Draught. I can pick it out by ear but my 12 year old students need more help.

    Thanks,
    Chip

    The Complete Works of Turlough O'Carolan has melodies in several formats, including sheet music, but no chords.

    "Celtic Music for Mandolin" by Allan Alexander & Jessica Walsh has the tune on CD with chords, tablature and standard notation. I got my copy from Elderly Instruments.

    Thanks so much Scott. You the man! I had only heard Dedanaan's version in Eb and a lot more notes.

    I should have mentioned that's a custom arrangement I did for... me, I guess. F isn't the typical key but it works good for this. It's also more of a chord solo almost but just leave out the low notes to turn it back into single-note melody.

    Artie McGlynn has a nice guitar version of this on his first traditional Irish music solo CD, "McGlynn's Fancy" from 1994. It is also in F, and is quite similar to Scott's with a few different wrinkles here and there.

    Scott's arrangement of this piece took me one whole winter to nail down completely, but it's become kind of a signature piece- even played it at coffee house once.

    Thanks again to a great board mod.

    Hmm, that sounds familiar. I was absolutely playing that piece back then and very well may have been influenced by it. His playing is superb.
