Thread Name: 'Enrico' - pace and rhythm?
Subject: 'Enrico' - tempo and rhythm?
I've finally got around to getting to grips with that good old tune "Enrico" or "Henry Coe" (a favourite of Thomas Hardy).
Any thoughts on a good tempo and rhythm for this one? Here's a sweet little version of it on YouTube: Enrico. Nice tempo and a pleasant sound from the nylon strings. He's playing it in more of a hornpipe rhythm (dotted), and I'd assumed it was a reel and therefore a bit more equal in rhythm.
Just curious as to how other 'Catters play it for listening (not dancing).
