Some tabs which I wish to share with BHO members and quite specially with my friends : Janet Burton, Laurence Diehl, Patrick Pedelaborde and Jean Louis Thiry, music lovers as me of beautiful tunes come from Ireland and  Celtic nations.

To edit these tablatures, I download ABC files on one of the three websites which are fantastic gold mines for the Celtic music.

oldmusicproject.com/occ/tunes.html

oldmusicproject.com/oneils1.html

thesession.org/

In Tabledit, I import the ABC file having chosen the good gDGBD tuning or have gCGCD with or without capo according to the tone.

Then I look for the best positions of the left hand so that the play of the right hand is the easiest.

Tabledit is the only music editor whom I know and, for me, he is completed.

( An immense Thanks to Matthieu Leschemelle, it pleases to see a French product so appreciated all over the world.)

Here are some tabs with versions found on YouTube

Four beautiful compositions of O ' Carolan whom Janet could adapt and add to her set list.
