From Mary:

First, to anyone wanting to hear this melody, but still too stubborn to use the red Miditext program (like me, sometimes) go here [http://www.concertina.net/tunes_convert.html] to see the notation and also to hear a midi of the tune. It's easy! Just delete all of Capri's double spaced lines (make it all single line spacing).

Thanks for the link, Mary, that's a groovy site ... I've bookmarked it. I don't know why the abc format turned up double spaced in my post, I didn't do anything differently than I usually do (or did I? :::Scratches head:::), and that's the first time that's happened...

Capri, I'd like to hear some dotted notes or maybe some 6/8 time instead of the even 3/4 time with all quarter notes.

Well, I started out doing dotted notes, and more of a mix of eighth notes, too... and that's when it starting going all funky in my ears.

You could possibly sing it for us on PalTalk. ;-)

I'd have to download PalTalk, first, and get a decent mike...

I'll have a look at the dots tonight when I have more time and get back with you.

Thanks!

Just off the top of my head (before I heard your tune) I was thinking of "the English" sound...like in Greensleeves...going from a minor chord to the adjacent major chord one step down...

Music theory?!! :::Boggle:::

Gawds, can I just say how much I love this place?
