Reel De Montebello reel

I don’t know anything about the origin of this tune, exept that I have a recording of it by a contra dance band from western Massachusets called The Flying Garbonzos.

This tune was written by Quebec fiddler Richard Forest and has become fairly popular within the contradance scene.

I play a slightly different version that I learned from Rodney Miller:

EABc ecBA | FABc ecBA | GABc dBGB | edBA G2ED |
EABc ecBA | FABc AcBA | GABc dBGD | EDEG A4 :||:

This brisk little reel comes up a treat in three parts (two fiddles, and cello):
