The Galway Rambler - Ornamentation Half G roll. This is the first single reel we will learn. We will learn the half G roll as well as embedding this into the tune along with other ornamentation eg. Triplet, G cut, A cut, B cut and a G roll. You will be able to differentiate between the full G roll from lesson 16 and the half G roll here.
