Didda
Stupid name but great tune.
This is a slow reel or lively air depending how you hear it; written by Liz Carroll the fiddler.It is on her album "Lost in the Loop" (track 13).
I reckon it could be played before a hornpipe or a reel.
Liz Carroll lists this in her sheetmusic as a “Scottish Type Air”
Her sheet music is here. What a great resource!

Is it really ‘C’
The low ‘C’ in the 8th measure really doesn’t sound like a ‘C’ to me. All the scripts I’ve seen, including Liz’s book have it as a C. When I listen to to I hear either E, though a D works as well.
Great tune.
