The flute is a keyless blackwood flute of unknown make.
Levenside (17-Feb-2008) I wrote this tune at the end of last year. The title is a river in North Yorkshire
Rydale Waltz (17-Feb-2008) Another of my own compositions. The title refers to another North Yorkshire river
The Yellow-Haired Laddie (22-Feb-2008) Scots slow air. The song for which this is the tune probably dates from the first half of the 18th century
Reed House Rant (23-Oct-2008) An Old English Hornpipe - these tunes were in triple time
and mostly died out during the 18th Century. There has been a revival of interest in these interesting old tunes. This one
can be found in the William Vickers Manuscript from the mid 18th. Century.
Tunes on the recorder
Niel Gow's Lament on the death of his second wife (09-Jan-2009) Played on a bass recorder.
This tune was originally written in D for the fiddle, but is played here in C as it fits the F recorder range better.
