'A Funchalence' comes from a MS belonging to 'Mrs Christopher'. It is
perhaps a little dance and perhaps in honour of Funchal, Madeira's capital.
Sometimes the machete was accompanied by another machete or 'viola
francesa' (guitar) and the accompaniment part is typically very basic
indeed. I've added a simple guitar part and the machete part is played
only with the thumb.
