Lovely, absolutely lovely.Technically superb but you use it to create tones and fluidity not to impress. Guitar looks like a brook by the bridge shape

Thanks for the comments - it is indeed a Brook Tavy - beautiful tone and action. Search You Tube on Lydiat and you'll see some more of it and my Manson acoustics.

this tune wasn't actually written by carolan, it exists in English Morris records 100 years previous to his birth. chances are he heard it, decided he liked it and then tried to write it of as his own.

[mlydiat]

This is a long-standing debate - which records point to the Morris? It's a beautiful tune nonetheless.

Well Done.

Truely a fantastic job!

Even More remarkable was that O'Carolan was blind
