Uncle Dick Plays An Irish Air 3 Fanny Power

This is a fabulous arrangement by Seth Austin, an American guitar player who is on a Celtic CD with tab book with a number of other greats. Stuck out here in the ocean on Whit Saturday I cannot quite remember which piece it is - I believe it might be Fanny Power, by Turlough O'Carolan, the Irish harpist and composer. There are only two parts here, A and B, and the running order is AABB-AABB like - I am told - many of his tunes. There were several false starts in this recording due to angry gulls, but this take is quite unencumbered by any of that.

You're very kind, sailorsdoxy. We don't hear many waltzes nowadays but this one certainly deserves to be let out of the closet UD99:))

Thx lucabez :) The tune is called Fanny Power, not Morgan Magan as I first thought. It's a lovely thing and actually a waltz.
