Thanks Alice
I will have a go at playing them later
A question though - I have a book with tunes of the same titles and the notation is slightly different. Just had another look and it seems to be the same tune. The difference is like that of a hornpipe to a reel - the first of the pair of 'half notes' is dotted and the second halved in length - so stressing the first note and reducing the second. Does that make any sense??
Anyway I was really looking forward to hearing your music but I can't get it - the darn thing restarts after reaching about 70% each time. Never mind though I fell into your pond page - I love ponds - have two and considering a third. Also love plants and grow Trilliums ( not native here) in my garden
