Last year at our Spring Concert series the San Francisco Scottish Fiddlers did a set consisting of Mrs. McLeod of Raasay, Largo's Fairy Dance, and De'il Amang the Tailors. All fairly simple, well-known tunes that audiences tend to like. Suzie Petrov's book has a set consisting of De'il, The Scholar, and The Flogging Reel but that's a much harder set. -Steve -- Steve Wyrick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- Concord, California Posted to Scots-L - The Traditional Scottish Music & Culture List - To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
