A Swedish Waltz from Vasen. Played very slow.

I'm not sure of the correct spelling, but this is the tune recorded on Dervish's "At the End of the Day" as "Josefin's."

Josefin's Waltz by Roger Tallroth

The wildly popular contra dance band Swallowtail (based in Massachusetts) included it on their recording "After the Dance." The liner notes say "Swedish guitarist Roger Tallroth composed this beautiful waltz for his niece's christening."

I also heard it played by Tallroth and his group (sorry, I don't recall the name) on the Prairie Home Companion radio show.

correct Swedish spelling: "Josefins dopvals"
(which means: the Christening Waltz of Josephine)

In the recorded key

I transcribed this directly from Dervish's "At the End of the Day" CD in the key in which it was recorded. I also included their intro.
