Tunes for learning by ear: The Waterloo Dance
« on: January 10, 2020, 01:35:16 PM »

This is a mighty tune I've enjoyed playing for decades (though mainly on a fiddle), and now you can too.

I think it comes to us originally from the Thomas Hardy, though it's picked up a few embellishments along the way, as tunes usually do, including some determined shuffling in the A, and a slippery chromatic bit as we go into the C.

(This is a new video - a found a couple of of 'tunes learned by ear a long time ago' type idiosyncracies in the B music and have now fixed them.)

Have fun, and please let me know how you get on - and about any other interesting melodeon wheezes you manage to work into it.

Gavin
