The Asturian Way
This is another brilliant tune by Brian Finnegan. On the CD, Haven, it's in F#, which meant it was complete Hell to learn, and even worse to transcribe. I had to listen to it over and over and over and over again, until it was completely burnt into my brain, and then listen to it yet again, this time pausing it every two seconds to check I'd got it right and scribble it down. I hope I have got it right, and I BLOODY WELL HOPE it's not a duplicate!
But it's a great tune - easily my favourite on that CD - and I'm sooo glad I've finally learnt it!

You probably should have picked up a Bb whistle.....it would have saved you lots of grief and headaches.

I believe the composer of this tune has never expected someone else to learn and play it in public.
