Gerry's setting

This is how it's played in our sessions as introduced by fiddler Gery McCann. He plays it in a set: Dancing Eyes/Little House Around the Corner (this jig)/Nova Scotia/. I introduced this set to another sesion I attend away from Manchester...nice set.

Oh, and he starts Nova Scotia with the anacrusis (the pick-up notes), emphasising and holding the first B for a fraction which gives a nice halt and lift to the rhythm - and catches out many an unsuspecting, visiting guitarist *hee hee*
