Play along to these tunes on your practice chanter.  Click on a song name to play or pause and double-click to rewind.

These tunes were produced using Audovia which uses JFugue MusicString notation to make music with up to fifteen instrumental voices and a percussion track.

Notes within a MusicString are specified by their name and duration.

Durations can be expressed as pulses where 32 pulses represents a quarter note (crotchet).  An 'E' quarter note preceded by a 'G' gracenote can be written as [G]/1 [E]/31.

In most of the tunes, the taorluaths and grips have been moved forward so that the beat falls on the 'D' gracenote.  This improves expression and helps to give the tune that elusive "lift".
