You can listen to a friend of mine playing this strathspey: http://www.k4.dion.ne.jp/~c.trail/sound/Lime%20Hill%20STRATHSPEY.mp3 As far as I know, she is the only fiddler who exclusively plays Cape Breton music in this country. If there were many others, she would be the best.

Hi Slainte, your friend is good on the fiddle, but the piano accompaniment is totally wierd in that recording, it sounds like an attempt to imitate the Cape Breton piano style but not quite succeding...

You have good ears, McG. The piano player doesn't specialise in C.B. music.

I don't know how good my ears are really... but I happen to listen to a lot of CB music
