This is actually a two time Bourree

This is a tune that is great fun to play. Written by Gilles Chabenat. The rhythm in the second part shows that it is often the gaps between the notes, rather than the notes themselves that is important! Have fun!

My favourite tune

This one is great fun to play on the melodeon. I learnt it Sidmouth years ago, indeed I learnt the version that I currently play alongside Hazel Askew.

Cool tune

This is a fun tune! I love the syncopation in the B part.
Others should note that this tune is in fact in D mixolydian, not G major as it says in 'details'.
