Nice tune - fits into a Vivaldi like four seasons piece I've been working on. Is there any history on this piece? Age, Composer, tradition? Some of the trills seem to work out better as 16th to 8th triplets - at this early playing though.

Frost and Snow is from the revised O'Neill's book, edited by Miles Krassen, I believe.

2situla,

The ornament symbols refer to rolls not trills. The tune would seem to be Irish and is in a modal key.

I'm intrigued by finding this tune here - I found it in Krassen's O'Neill's years ago, on a needle-in-the-haystack good tune hunting quest in that book. Never heard it played, or for that matter persisted in playing it myself.
