Hello to all and season's greetings!!

I am that self taught player in the wilderness of Arkansas without teacher or fellow player to ask questions of; so I'll ask the forum. I have got to a stage where I can play a lot of tunes (Irish) and I am adding more ornamentation..I had a lot of trouble initially with timing so swore off ornaments so as not to make things worse. But my timing is better now, thank you. So back to the question: Jacqueline McCarthy's CD 'The Hidden Note', track #2, Mrs Ellen O'Dwyer's Fancy...what kind of ornaments is she using? I do realize that she is playing the tune in C but I'm having trouble imitating her ornamentation.
Any hints or insights?

Thanks, Alan.

If you use a slower-down package on your PC, you can hear it slowly and work out how the experts do their ornaments.
