NEW LESSON, THE (An Leigeann Nuad). AKA and see "'Read-a-med-aisy' (The)," "Reading made Easy (The)." Irish, Air (6/8 time, "airily"). D Mixolydian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Read-a-med-aisy = 'reading made easy'. "Billy McCormick's" is sometimes given as an alternate title, but the jig of that name printed in O'Neill's DMI (1907, No. 341) bears no resemblance. See also George Petrie's version "Reading made Easy (The)."

Source for notated version:

Printed sources: O'Neill (Music of Ireland: 1850 Melodies), 1903; No. 488, p. 85.
