Bluebells - eight actually, at least in pipe music where it is unusual because it is not pentatonic in structure. I always found it very easy to teach because it is mostly crotchet or tied crotchet single note beats. I used it for teaching learner pipers who could even pick it up and play it quite well within day or so. Anyway. Bruce Campbell
