Poll: Tune of the Month for February 2020

(1/7) > >>

Clive Williams:
Hi all - this month's choices:

- The Star Above the Garter - Last month's runner up (barely) was this from Gavin Atkin's channel comes this rather nice trad 32 bar jig: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DLrQ7vRZW0

- Mourisque - I played this accidentaly last night (I was trying to play Galopede and missed); Lester's got a nice version of it, with ever so convenient ABC, here: https://lesters-tune-a-day.blogspot.com/2012/10/tune-61-la-mourisque.html

- Farewell to Muirheads - exploring youtube, I came across this as Ian Mackay shows off his new Pariselle box; it's a bagpipe tune written by Robert Wallace, and it's really, really nice. First tune in the set. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4N4x-bimWs

- Mazurka des Tuileries - after a quick search to find something 'continental' to add a bit of variety to the list, I found this on Jack's channel. Written by Maarten Decombel, a nice tune I'd really quite like to learn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IozYjDqeVf8

Happy voting all!

Cheers,

Clive

Jack Humphreys:
Thanks Clive, for promoting my first ever video. Further down the youtube details there are links which may help (I'm playing a CF box so my  DG-speak "A minor" fingering sounds like G minor, of course)

Sheet music with playable audio: (A minor fingering)

Play the noteflight quavers as swung (almost dotted) rhythm. (The noteflight audio doesn't play the first three notes properly)

Please note that the authentic tune as played by Goze (Maarten and Wim Claes) has an extra bar at the end of  several phrases
Listen here to find it played properly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zOQVZW9qGQ

Clive Williams:
Cheers Jack :-)

Clive Williams:
Gosh. I've written 'nice' against every single tune's description!
