Ron Clarke.

These tunes have been published in two slim volumes:

Follow the links above for these two publications.

To hear what some of the tunes sound like
In DOS: (approximately), you can download, FREE, a collection of them drawn from both publications (and some previously unpublished tunes), together with a simple player, for DOS, or:
as MIDIs (see the links above).

You may also access other MIDIs (not written by me, but sequenced by me) by clicking on the "Celtic/Bluegrass/Reels/More Celtic MIDIs" page links.
(You may find more MIDIs sequenced by me on some of the websites listed on the LINKS page.)

You are free to listen to the tunes, to learn them and to play them, with my compliments. You may copy any of the MIDI files to your NON-COMMERCIAL pages if you wish. I would take it kindly if you would then acknowledge this site. You may wish to use this image file:

The only restriction I would insist on is that if any of my own original (Tadpole) tunes are used in a way that would normally attract royalties, such as commercial recordings, film or TV soundtrack, then WE NEED TO TALK FIRST !

If anybody wants to make spectacularly sequenced MIDI files from some of the tunes, and wishes to have them linked from this Web Page, please email me.
