I got this from Pete Cooper & Richard Bolton's CD, "Turning Point". It's the last in a set of three 3-2s. I'm still trying to learn the other two.

Great tune! We started learning it this evening at our weekly tune workshop.

What is very effective in this tune is the way it unexpectedly goes into Dmaj from Bmin at the start of the 5th part.

sounds good in Bminor too (parts 3 n 5 nicer in this key?)(a bit breton and a bit baroque)

Three-two => waltz

...actually, in minor and as a waltz it sounds amazingly good!

how is it done?
very simply: just move the bar a crotchet forward:
can you hear!! :-)

(you can also, when suitable, shorten the quaver groupof each bar to 6 (or change some of them into semiquavers) and lengthen by one the crotchet group...)
