Well, on initial play ~ hanter-dro, laridé à six temps?

Yes "c", maybe a Laridé à six temps...

Isn't it curious that "Lepre" in italian means "Hare"?

I like it, it was a pleasant repast while I prepared hot spiced wine and mince pies... Hare would be a welcome dish for Christmas... So far I've only had wild rabbit...

I forgot to say that tune has to be played with a bit of swing.
