The Gathering

The Gathering Waltz



This is a recent composition of mine to celebrate the first get-together in Crieff of lots of learner musicians. The Gathering takes place on the 19th May 2012 (further details).

• Standard Notation with Chords
• Standard Notation with Mandolin Tablature
• MP3 Soundfile with me playing The Gathering Waltz on Mandolin
  

The G natural really adds something to this tune, Nigel. It's a fine composition and a good choice for TOW.

I wasn't too sure about this tune but it does grow on you (Gathering moss, I suppose ) after you play it a few times.

The tune would probably work well for a "St Bernard's". Pass the brandy, please!

I see it's been "sneaked into" the Wednesday morning class too.

Just as well I like it.

Yes but the G natural combined with the high G sharp seems likely to pose a problem for moothie players. A quick switch between the A and the Highlander may be called for ...

I had a quick blast with Garageband - Shippey 10 string on the left, Shippey Cherry on the right...........
