Captain O'Kane (Turlough O'Carolan)

Here's a tune believed to be composed by the great Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan. I first learned this on guitar from Alan Colfer, one of my instructors at the University of Limerick. After a bit of reharmonizing and rearranging I discovered how enjoyable it is to play on the mandolin.

Sheet music includes standard notation (treble clef) and mandolin tablature.
