The Tune
I Discovered this tune at a fiddle workshop last year, It's traditional Welsh the title translateing as: "House and Garden"
# Posted on December 26th 2002 by Dafydd Monks
“Ty a Gardd”
( ˆ ) should be above the 'y' in the title, but the session font does not seem to have this letter choice...
Pronunciation ~
Ty = "Tea" or "Tee"
a = "uh"
Gardd = Gar, like the fish, followed by the sound 'th' as in 'the', aspirated = "garth"
Here's another take on this Welsh melody:
