Music TOW#37: Strathearn
Strathearn

This was an eight-bar hymn tune composed by the late fiddler Ron Gonnella; I have expanded it into a beautiful slow air by repeating phrases. I think it works. Originally from Dundee, Gonnella lived in Crieff for many years before his death in 1990.

I did this on the Mandocello, which I hadn't picked up for a while and it shows, so it was good practice.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-N-5ExvLs2s
