The Christmas Tree

Composition of Paddy O’Brien (1922 - 1991).

This setting of the tune is very much inspired by the playing of the box player Pat Barton. The ornaments that have been included are triplets and some of his variations to the main melody.

You can listen Pat playing it in one video in his YouTube channel:
