Believe me if all those endearing young charms (fiddle lesson)

Believe me if all those endearing young charms is a song written by the Irish poet Thomas Moore in 1808, using an old Irish melody. In this fiddle lesson I give three versions. The first is a simple one in the key of F; the second is in D, and the third, also in D, has suggestions for Irish fiddle ornamentation, including rolls, cuts and drones.
I make reference to the tune's use in Come on Eileen, and by Looney Tunes cartoons.
I use on-screen sheet music, and a free pdf copy is available to subscribers.
There are many more traditional Irish tunes elsewhere on The Fiddle Channel, and I have a book "Exploring Folk Fiddle", which examines many of the concepts and techniques of folk fiddling.
