I agree, which is one reason why I suggested a slow march rather than
a reel or a jig. Though jigs and reels can be really lovely if
they're played slowly and then the arpeggios and such are a little
more approachable. Not easy but approachable. :)

Not to mention the breakneck pace many of them are played at,
totally difficult to do on a HG...

Hi, folks,
Do you have any Irish tunes you like playing on the G/C hurdy gurdy?
No, I'm not going to insensitively invade some unsuspecting Irish
session this Wednesday, I just want to play something fun on St.
Patrick's Day. Sonny's Mazurka is pretty good, but honestly doesn't
sound very Irish to me. Sounds Scandinavian.
All the Best,
Barbara
