This is one of my favourite tunes on the Kathryn Tickell Band’s newest CD, "Instrumental." Got stuck in my head, so I had to transcribe it. I hope my ABC does the tune justice!
Author?
Did she compose it herself?
Pots And Pencils
No, it was composed by her brother Peter Tickell, who like her is a fiddler.
On "Instrumental" it’s played in A and comes over well - very nicely arranged.
Sorry, I should have mentioned I pushed the tuning down to ‘G’. Nasty habit, not playing a fiddle and all ;)
Key
Since I play mandolin, G is fine for me. The beginning might be slightly easier in A, the rest is not.
Re: Pots And Pencils
I was so pleased to find this on here! It is part of my favourite set from my favourite folk album. I’m going to have a go at it on euphonium, so I’ll probably re-transpose it again into F.
