Thanks, Kate. In my Intermediate Mandolin class I'm spending 3 or 4 weeks on a particular key before moving on to the next. We're doing A major and A pentatonic at the moment before moving on to D. The tunes we're doing for A are "Fear a' Phige", "Little Liza Jane" (American old-time), "Put Me In the Big Chest" and "Steer Kimmer". -- Nigel Gatherer, Crieff, Scotland Friday-Monday: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Tuesday-Thursday: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Posted to Scots-L - The Traditional Scottish Music & Culture List - To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
