Six comments

Cool tune

this tune was played by sylvaine, a flautist.

Hmmmmm… ~ structurally speaking this mirrors a 16 bar single reel, minus the repetition…composer?

This a composition by Sylvain Barou, fluteplayer-extraordinary with the band Comas (http://comas.folk.be), The Sheetmusic isn’t quite what he plays exactly. I’ll give it a try and post the abc in the comments

Just did a little search for the tune name: Sylvain calls it Clare’s reel. Allthough it’s more of a slow piece. A little sample can be found on http://www.folk.be/barou/ra.htm

Right you are Fre, about 120 bpm, good comment and link, but don’t forget those ABCs…

Clare’s, X:3

Another wee version based on Sylvain’s playing, many years ago, at the fantastic, but now sadly closed Ca Beleño in Asturias, Spain.

Just to add some more ideas for variations.
