the Tailors / The Mason's
Apron (Alasdair Fraser) One of my favorite opening
medleys to have a bit of fun
with at concerts...

of Huntly / Millers Reel A fine rousing strathspey
by William Marshall, one of Scotlands
foremost 18th-century fiddler/composers,
followed by a 'good-going' reel

Fingal's
Cave (Alasdair Fraser, Pate
Thomson)/Skyedance Reels This air has been a favorite
of our group for a few years.
Red

Jerry Alien, Janette Duncan) The melody here will be recognized
as that of the well-known song. "The
Bonnie, Bonnie Banks of Loch
Lomond," but the words come from
the Irish tradition.
Oer

typical of the more romantic
19th-century side of the repertoire
Mull
Rant /Hughie Shorties Reel I learned the "Mull Rant" while
recording with flutist extraordinaire
Chris Norman, and subsequently
taught it at one of our Valley

Johnny Wilmot of Cape Breton,
has a delightful twist near the
end.
