A lovely tune on John Williams' Steam album.

Harris Dance
More usual to find this in A. Probably made famous by the early recordings of Alistair Fraser. A good version on his"Skyedance - Live In Spain" CD, featuring the piper from "Tejedor".

Lovely tune. I need to learn it. It seems this tune is different from another one known simply as "Harris Dance," which was recorded by Ossian.
