The Cheshire Waltz

Originally in C in the Joshua Gibbons collections (Lincolnshire) but often transposed to D.
This is Anahata’s version as per uTube. Info kindly supplied also by Anahata.

The Cheshire Waltz

This tune is recorded by Spiers and Boden on the album Tunes, which is listed on this site but the tune is wrongly named Cheshire Waits - possibly an over-zealous spell-checker? Anyway it means this site doesn’t recognise it. But it is there and worth a listen.
