This is a first try at Julia Clifford's from "Pete Cooper - Irish Fiddle Solos".
Constructive Criticism is welcome.

  • Tomgraney (Tuamgreine) Castle is the Irish title. In Scotland (with a few small changes) it's known as Loch Leven Castle.

    I think the one usually known as Napoleon Crossing the Rhine is a different tune.

  • Sounds, really great, I play from Pete Cooper Irish Fiddle Solos too and this song is my fave... how old are you?? I'm 14, a Freshman

  • Very good!!

    I knew the wonderful fiddle player Julia Clifford

  • Nice second finger slide on your first try? You must have been playing Trad Irish before. I love this book. I learned to play from it. Sounding good. Hornpipes are so fun, all the triplet and runs you can throw in later :) You are on your way to great fun.

  • very good ,this is more commonly known as Tomgraney Castle,and occasionally The Chancellor.4 stars

  • It sounds nice to me. The rhythm, phrasing and ornamentation are correct (OK, the rhythm could be a little more strict).

    The only issue is the 'bang bang' at the end of the phrases. You play "Az Az" but it's really" A2 A2" that ought to be played. You should reduce the silence between the notes to the minimum. Here you just need to play the two long notes separated by a bowing inversion. (sorry, I'm more a wind or plectrum instruments player).

  • Hey. :) I've been practicing this on an electric violin; which I don't think sounds as goo dfor these types of songs. Maybe I should break out my old violin instead.

    Thanks for postign this...

    PS. It's listed as Julia clifford's in my book too. ;)

  • Nice job - but the tune you're playing is the hornpipe "Napoleon Crossing the Rhine".

  • glè math! if you're playing that in a session you might want to be a bit more strict with the rhythm, otherwise fantastic

  • Maith thu! Great rhythym!
