GUEST,FolkyShambles,

Apologies, I only heard the 2nd tune on 1st listening.

Agreed, their version's good, but lacks the percussive emphasis for the dance movement's foot stamping

Ah, one of the great tunes of the Central French canon - and if you're after a cross-Channel mashup it works really nicely with 'Iron Legs' for a truly finger-twisting take-no-prisoners medley :)

Right, that's one to throw into the next session ...

sfmans,

Agree!

Assuming you mean the hornpipe?
