Helen, Good choice for a starter. The beauty with that tune is it can be tried: a) as a very free air, b) steady waltz, c) faster "Circle Waltz", to keep interest up. Cheers Anthony --- On Wed, 22/12/10, Helen Capes <helen.ca...@paradise.net.nz> wrote:

Which do you suggest? The first tune I ever did this with was Crooked Bawbee, as suggested by Bill Hume. It worked well for me, I didn't get bored with it.
