Slow air not a reel. Phil Cunningham tune.
I'm not quite sure if I've got this quite right but it's close. It's very difficult to transcribe a slow air and it's open to different interpretations. I suggest that you seek out Phil Cunningham's own version on "Another Gem" with himself and Aly Bain. The tune has also been recorded by Give Way, an exciting and very young all girl group from Balerno near Edinburgh.
Phil composed this tune especially for the 25th (and silver jubilee )Tonder Festival. This is my favourite music event so this tune means a lot to me. As far as I know, the written music hasn't been published yet or I might have cheated.

Small amendment
Sorry, I've just made a small alteration to the ABC in the last bar of part one. The first time around, the last note should be B4 instead of A4. A4 is correct for the second time around.
