The Wizard's Waltz
This tune is a very very very fast waltz
Little bits here and there have been lifted from The Wizard's Walk by Jay Ungar.
Have fun
# Posted on February 18th 2008 by woD
Speed
Also, because this needs to be played as fast as possible to show its magic, try putting
L: 1/16
when you convert it
# Posted on February 18th 2008 by woD
So, it's not really a waltz? Perhaps it is one of those misnomers i.e. a jig called a waltz.......

I don't even need to play this ~ just looking at it I can see it's cack...
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by ceolachan
Translation ~ 'cack' = 'shight'...

Can I submit my own compositions?
Well... The Session isn't really intended for that. If you do post one of your own compositions, then you must do your "penance", so to speak, by balancing each original composition with about five trad tunes.
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by ceolachan
Somehow I don't think this is the place for etudes, even shight ones...
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by ceolachan
I prefer The Wizard's Walk, it works better as a reel, and this isn't just "Little bits here and there have been lifted from The Wizard's Walk", it's pretty much just a jigf versionb of that tune
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by JosephofCK
"jig version" I meant to put there... my word
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by JosephofCK
Yes, a rip-off too, and of that tune ~ daft folk in the phantasy world of ITM...

^^You boys need to discover sarcasm but what you cannot discover i suppose is INSIDE JOKES!
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by D.J.F.
Some things just aren't funny DJF, especially the hackneyed and trite... For sarcasm in would need at least four sharps or flats, and for an inside joke it would have to be based on something we all chose to be associated with, not "Wizard Walk"...
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by ceolachan
Damn, Dan the man who beats the bodhran. How are you doing? You've survived!!!
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by ceolachan
The sarcasm has nothing to do with the tune...the sarcasm was the guy (whoever he/she is) saying that "little bits here an there" were lifted!!!!!
I'm good thanks 'c'! Don't really beat the bodhran but I'm trying my hands at High and Low Whistles!
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by D.J.F.
Good luck Dan... I have faith in you...
* This tune is a very very very fast waltz
* Little bits here and there have been lifted from The Wizard's Walk by Jay Ungar.
* Have fun
I went first to the proverbial (?) dots and quickly moved beyond the dodgy comments... Sarcasm eh?!
It must be an in joke...

What next, slowed down to a Jay Ungar waltz?

Yeah yeah ok ok. Cheeky bastards!
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by Dow
Bloody Folkworks people should all be lined up against the wall and shot. And now you've started sending spies in to Sydney sessions...
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by Dow
Spies?
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by ceolachan
Sorry Dow!
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by D.J.F.
Just a bit of good natured fun from a few young pranksters...you're a hero to us really Dow
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by D.J.F.
Young pranksters. Yeah, I suppose I should be glad that you all play stupid tunes because otherwise you'd just be standing outside Footlocker throwing glass bottles at innocent passers-by and nicking their mobile phones. So thanks to Folkworks for keeping the children off the streets...
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by Dow
Don't massage his ego Dan, that's all we need... He's already having to do very little work floating from one place to the other, his head is so full of helium... Or is that gauzzzz feeling you have in your head really just another alcoholic haze Dow?
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by ceolachan
Just what are you trying to say, 'c'?!
(...He said, mopping up the glass of whiskey he just spilled on his computer keyboard...)
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by Dow
Just imagine when the Folkworks kiddies get old enough to drink (legally). They'll be even gobbier than they already are!
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by Dow
Don't waste the precious brew Dow, get down there and suck it up before it all evaporates...
Gobbier?! ~ AAAAAAAAAAA!!! ~ the horror of it all... It will be worse than the film "28 Days Later"... Where will we run to? ~ the Outer Hebrides? ~ Tasmania? ~ the Swedish Archipelego?
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by ceolachan
At least the good stuff, like the single malts, will be safe. They probably only drink those bright florescent sickeningly sweet things that come in little bottles, or those weird vodka jellies made with rubbing alcohol...
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by ceolachan
Don't let's go to Tassie. They're as inbred down there as they are in the northeast of England. Mind you, the extra fingers are useful for the music. Especially if you want to add extra low notes onto a whistle or stretch up to top B and C on a banjo.
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by Dow
That leaves Maine out too... I like Newfoundland, if they'll take us...
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by ceolachan
i think the outer hebridies would be a good place to run away to. its lush there. islay is good. lots of whiskey. yeah folkworks is very good at keeping me off the street. well no actually. i busk on the street but im not a chav which is good. i would rather you lined up all the chavs and shot them instead of folkworks people cos if you shot us then folk music would die out!!! shock horror. and anyways this tune is great.
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by frafyduck
"~ then folk music would die out!!!"
I don't know whether I'm laughing at that or the painful revelation that some of you drink Islay malt... AAAAAAA!!! Is no place safe?
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by ceolachan
yes Dow we love you so much that we have invented a rule in a card game that concerns your intriguing name.
and this tune is fabulous, thank you woD for posting!!!
Folkworks? What's that?
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by mehitabel23
Oh my god, C, the last time the Folkwork-ites got together it was to WATCH 28 days later (coincidence or is ceo an infiltrator??)
Anyway I'd suggest Barrow, Alaska, for refuge.
And, Dow, about the drinking, somewhere else in this mustard there is a discussion and critique of our drinking habits.
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by mehitabel23
Good job I don't drink otherwise I'd end up a right woD
i wouldn't be able to bear the shame...
# Posted on February 19th 2008 by D.J.F.
Hey mehitabel, I thought you were just about to break out in song somewhere else? You chanteuse you...
# Posted on February 20th 2008 by ceolachan
Yes, I am perpetually on the edge of breaking out into song!
How is this tune still here??? Much as I love it.
# Posted on February 20th 2008 by mehitabel23
Yes, well, Mr. Unger let's them lie as long as he gets the credit...and there are worse things on site than this, though some may disagree...
Go one mehitabel, go over the edge...
# Posted on February 20th 2008 by ceolachan
Okay...
"DAVY DAVY NICK NACK, DAVY DAVY NICK NACK, WOULD YOU LIKE A TIC TAC? WOULD YOU LIKE A TIC TAC?"
Now wasn't that nice?
Now the alphabet song:
"a b t th j h kh, d dh r z s sh sw, dw tw zw a gh f q...."
(can't remember the last bit)
# Posted on February 20th 2008 by mehitabel23
How about something from "Oliver", the musical?
# Posted on February 20th 2008 by ceolachan
Consider yourself at home.
Consider yourself one of the family.
We've taken to you so strong.
It's clear we're going to get along!
# Posted on February 21st 2008 by mehitabel23
