Elegy

Hello!
This week's #tunefriday is an unusual one. Filmed at the Halsway Manor Harpas at Halsway Nyckelharpa Weekend 2017 it is a tune that Jonny wrote for me many years ago. It was actually written for double bass, but once I got my cello pitched nyckelharpa (oktavharpa) it was obvious that it was meant for this instrument! It is quite playable on a standard nyckelharpa. My oktavharpa is tuned with a D string, but this won't cause any problems for C tuned harpa players.
Download the dots and the piano parts in pdf format. I ask only one thing - if you perform it I'd like to hear it! Film it, record it, but play it and then send it on! (I just want to hear it!)

Sticky G&T

Hello!
I'm a little behind with my videos because I left my camera at Halsway Manor. So I'm going to have to work hard to catch up again! This week the tune is a tune that I wrote as a five note beginner tune, but it's taken about 6 months for me to get to grips with it and decide that I actually really love it! So here is Sticky G&T. (It's a long story!)
