Swallowtail Jig > Calliope House

Swallowtail is a very "tense" Jig, Calliope is very relaxed. The key change
from A to E intensifies the effect.

Daniel Carwile (of the band that was called Full Moon Ensemble) used to play
it that way.

I wonder if Alasdair made his set Calliope > Cowboy > Calliope was because
he had a hard time finding a third tune too. Regardless of the reason, I
really like his settings (of almost everything).
