This is the very first book of Irish tunes I purchased when I began playing Irish fiddle back in high school, and I found it very useful. A short primer at the beginning gives you the basic gist of how an Irish fiddler might ornament his/her tunes. In the collection itself, ornaments such as rolls, triplets and grace notes are written directly into the melodies. This allows you to get a sense of where these ornaments might go. While it doesn't contain all the tunes from the original O'Neill collections, the most commonly known tunes are here. So once you've (hopefully) moved on to learning all your tunes by ear, you'll still have a good reference volume on your shelf when you just can't for the life of you remember how "The Woman of the House" starts....
