The Lads of Laois
The Lads of Laois
A mighty reel in the key of E minor which usually follows ‘The Maid I Ne’er Forgot’. There are variations out there in both first and second parts of the tune which suit fiddle, flute, pipes etc. We will explore the variations and see what we come up with for the tenor banjo, enjoy the tune…

Welcome to the new Autumn term 2016 for advanced banjo/mandolin/cittern players, great to see such a great turn out. We will be concentrating on some nice reels this term so fasten your seat belts and enjoy the craic!! The first reel I learned from Arty McGlynn & Nollaig Casey CD ‘Lead the Knave’ which was played as a set with ‘The Lads of Laois’. So 2 great reels in the key of E minor to add to your set list, I have also included ‘the professionals’ performing the tunes, total classic.
