Carson's March
This is one of mine, again composed on the hammered dulcimer. This tune is not really a strathspey but, as the name implies, a march. It is very rythmic & sort of choppy & played a little bit like a strathspey only slowed down to marching tempo. It is alot of fun to play with a rhythm section & accompaniment. Carson is my 5 year old son who used to march around the house counting off like a drill sergeant & he would make my wife & I fall in behind him & have sort of a parade. The set I play is this one,then Bog an Lochan & then Sonny's Shindig.

Carson's March
If anyone wants to hear this tune in action, I've got it up on myspace along with the other two, played on the h dulcimer and accompanied by guitar and bouzouki.
