Valse a Cadet

Probably the first French tune I learned.  From Jason Adajian.  This seems to be the way I play it now.  Perhaps in the past each part was doubled.

Les Patins Blancs

A waltz that seemed to pursue circa 2007.  Ran across it again recently.

The A should be repeated 4 times

Flatworld

A great tune from Andy Cutting of Blowzabella.

I extracted the audio from Track 9 of their "Vanilla" album, and slowed it down 25% to make it easier to learn.

Tumbalalaika

Download Tumbalalaika.abc

Depending on who you ask, this was either written by Henry Lefkowitch or traditional. In any case, this transcription is Forest's, and the chords come from Jessa and Daria.

Daria also gives alternate chords for the B part: Em, Em, D7, D7, D7, C, D, Em.
