Oops - wrong title!

Me again! When I posted this tune, I originally gave it the wrong title, which was "The Happy Piper". Oh well, not to worry!

The Bus Ride

I like it. It has a nice balance between traditional and modern, which doesn't appear forced or calculated. I'll stop before your head swells beyond its elastic limit.

It feels more like a hornpipe than a reel to me, with all the triplet passages and the predominance of arpeggios.
