Re: Irish Session Harp Hering

They are very rare. In case of you will maybe not find one, there is an alternative, but it is rather expensive: Seydel Sampler, configurated in LD+G.

The Chieftains had released one or more explicite Christmas-CDs too. These must be still available. If you check out the web for them there are shown some more Christmas-CDs by other Irish / Celtic artists as well.

Here another print of the tune, different version, but not with tabs: (And seems to have omitted every other bar.) ...

Re: NEW: Seydel All Minor

Yesterday at the festival I had been told in the Seydel factory, that it has been sold out again before the festival had started. Not even 1 piece left to try out. It will come again once more. Not exactly known when.

I'm really looking forward to see them! :D
Me too ... and to play and hear them. :D
