[NSP] Re: Tune title spelling
Thanks for those comments Sheila. As it happens the walkers (120 or so) were sauntering around one of Martha's famous buffet arrangements at Blankenheim when I learnt the tune. We played it on two fiddles and a nyckelharpa about 17 times through and it was lovely. We have since used the tune to walk the building at The Sage Gateshead - strolling around playing it everywhere including fire escapes, main auditoriums and even loos! I think it's called taking the music to the people.
