Yes, and Calliope House doesn't sound as good in D, as it does in E.


Quite right, and it lies well on the fiddle in E as well. I've never understood why one would bother to put it into D. Maybe they couldn't find jigs in E to put it with?? ;)


The Irish flute guys put it into D so they could play it. Intrestingly enough my baritone voice likes to sing in keys like Bb and F, but my fingers don't like those keys as much on the fiddle..
