Another Paddy Fahy's

A nice reel with an interesting dreamy mood. I like to play it at slow pace. Anyway, i can't play fast :o/ It's just that i don't feel the tune would be better at fast tempo. Watch out for the key change in the second part (F->G).
If you want to play it along with the Glackin brother's record, tune your instrument a whole tone down (FCGD instead of GDAE, for a fiddle).
