Hi All, If you want a good idea of how tunes might be played try Pauline Cato's Northumbrian Choice. Book and 2 CDs available at
http://www.mally.com/details.asp?id=52 and other outlets. The main disadvantage is that it is recorded on concert G pipes. However, if one also obtains a copy of the 'Amazing Slow Downer' at $49.95 from http://www.ronimusic.com/ you can adjust the pitch and speed of the recording to match your pipes and confidence level respectively. I am very wary of using 'flat' midi versions of a tune as teaching aids as they miss out the essential 'lilt' of the rhthym which is so important.
