Its full title is "Great North Run ‘86" and it’s by Northumbrian accordionist Robert Whitehead
Suggested by Alex.
A tune by Niall Kenny who said he wrote it in a Breton style. Seem to work as an An Dro, a schottische, or a reel depending on how it is played. Notation in Em, but could work in Gm on pipes or gurdy.
A couple of schottische by Naragonia, a Belgian duo (& sometimes a quartet).
Here is a video with Gregory Jolivet
and a studio version:
Fond the score online and it seems correct. Will probably trim into a straight A & B of each tune format at some point.
A tune that I seem to have heard for years. Alex says he and Tim used to play it. I always confused it with an Irish tune. Nicole, Calvaleigh, Alex and I meet the fellow for whom it was written at Le Son.
here is a version with Polle plus brass
A Welsh dance tune learned from Chava.
A nice fiddle version ( by Chava's sister Rebecca) can be heard here and purchased for a dollar:

one of those tunes I know when someone else starts it, but can never remember to play.
Have been playing it it G , but D is good too. Probably good practice to learn it in both(if one's instrument allows it)
