Aidan Coffey: The Blacksmith's Reel
Listen to the video. It's a straightforward variation but requires a bit of a stretch of the little finger. The notes are high G and high B, all the time returning to the roll on B. Listen to the full-speed tune (it is played three times). Listen to the full speed recording. I play the tune three times. When I play first part of the tune the second time around you can hear this variation. It is shown on the stave below the tune.

Someone asked me what these notes were, after playing this tune somewhere recently. If you're interested in this variation the notes are G BGDGBGBGBGAGBG. The underlined notes are the low ones that may be hard to place. They're all played with finger 2 (pointer finger). It's on the stave below variation 1.
