Questions about The Beauties of Ireland
The Beauties of Ireland is in D, in 12/8 time. On a GDAE instrument it sits in first position.
Easy. 99% of the notes fall in first position, between the open string and the fifth fret, and the highest fret used is 7.
It is a slide, written in 12/8.
Yes. Tenor banjo, mandolin and octave mandola are all tuned GDAE, so the tab above is identical for all three. A bouzouki tuned GDAD needs the top string adjusting, which the converter handles.
