Siete D’Ochobre jig

This is a galician tune from Lúnasa’s recording “Lá Nua”.
It’s like an Irish Jig 😉

Composed by the legendary Asturian accordion player “Manolete de Carcarosa”.

Carcarosa is in Asturias, so it might be an Asturian tune?

Years later I comment here again. I’m 99% sure this is actually a modern Asturian tune written by one of the Tejedor brothers and it’s definitely not called Muñeira Carcarosa. That one is a traditional tune and song recorded by Tejedor on the same album. I guess this is one more we need to add to the list of Lunasa’s misnamed tunes 🙂

The tune is part of the “Siete D’Ochobre” set of Tejedor’s 1999 album “Texedores de Suaños”.

Need to find the sleeve notes to check what the tune is actually called, I’ll report back if/when I do.

Ah! It’s 100% not Galician 🙂

Confirmed. This tune is called “Siete De Octubre” and was written by Asturian piper and accordionist Javier Tejedor.
