Welcome to the Slow Tunes Page. Here you will find many tunes recorded at different speeds. The idea is that you really need to learn Irish music by ear, and here you can play along with the music at your own pace. For all of you experienced players, pay it forward by submitting your own recordings. Simply look for a tune on the list, and if it is not there, then contribute your own recordings by emailing us with the mp3 recordings.
For tunes specifically used at our academy, please visit our School Tunes page!
