And now for something completely different... Celtic Harp for the ||gs!

Inspired by Mitchell's efforts (a big Thankyou, Mitch) to release some new
tunes, I've put a collection of Turlough O'Carolan's harp tunes taken from
http://www.epix.net/~lesley/carolan/carolan.zip and altered to play on an Apple
||GS via MidiConvert, mainly by setting the instrument used to harp and
clarinet.

You'll need Orch.BNK and Orch.WAV to play them on the 2gs. The file's been on
my webpage for a while, but I thought I should put it on ground to make it more
available.
