Holland

This came to me via a woodwind player in England.  It is a trad tune from the Netherlands.  Sounds like a schottische to me.

La Basura

A waltz we got form the Steegers.  Learned at the old 'trash bistro' in back of the Camp1 kitchen.  Said to be a Galician tune from a manuscript in the UC Santa Cruz library.

Transcription by Malaika.  I feel that the first note in the D part should not be a rest, but a G an octave below the second note.

Indigo

A waltz by Cliff Stapleton.  Recording from: The Duellists-English Hurdy-gurdy music.

One of those tunes that for whistles, fiddles, mandolins, piano accordions problbly need to be learned in multiple keys.

Recording is in D.  When playing with D/G button box players it ends up(often) in E.

Frailach

We got this tune via Kevin Burke’s Open House:


The session has a good discussion about it as well as four settings.  The 4th setting in Dm is close to what we play(though I don’t play an Eb in the penultimate measure of the A & B parts).
