Poll: Tune of the Month for September 2015
« on: August 25, 2015, 12:12:18 AM »

Here we are again folks - choosing our tune for next month!

Two runners up from last time first!

Bonny Kate - another session standard, with opportunity for plenty of nice bass runs, thank you again Lester:

The Rose Tree - once more, thank you Lester;
http://lesters-tune-a-day.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/tune-95-rose-tree.html and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkzS8JPtgQE#t=50 ... and a slightly more up tempo version from Liam Robinson - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GI2ytdycnL8

The Recruiting Officer - thanks for this suggestion Pete! Pete says:

From the Wm.Vickers manuscript, a super jig called The Recruiting Officer. Anahata play a verion from Aird's Airs that has a slightly different flavour.

A Youtube that's almost note for note, played at a sedate pace. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zseK8dO239Y

Anahata and Mary playing a close relative! (starts around 1:56 in) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrrNp8aFgDA

Moulin Rouge - a lovely parisian waltz; simple, well known (the tune anyway), and fits on a melodeon beautifully. What's not to like? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOCIkP0xucU

There you go, happy voting!

Cheers,

Clive

I voted in the "Recruiting Officer"... Don't know why... maybe this version in violin. A rare instrument appearing here. Nice.
