Maggie West's Waltz
This excellent tune was composed by Mairearad Green from Achiltibuie, a young piper and accordionist. An occasional member of the Anna Massie Band, she currently tours with The Box Club and all-female pipe group Tachem.

A great tune, Nigel.
I had been planning to post it myself one of these days.
Mairearad is a lovely player who can make the piano accordion sound like a musical instrument.

It was written for her grandmother Maggie who had the nickname Maggie West because she came from the west side of the village.

I did not submit it, JJ, but in the absence of any comment from the person who did, I thought I'd credit the composer.

Thanks, Nigel. I just realised that (Too late) after I'd submitted my post.
