| Item Description |
The original composition is by A Porteous. Here it is written out in the key of A major, but Porteous wrote it in the key of B flat. B flat is a harder key for fiddlers to play in.
At the bottom, Skinner has included some instructions for playing the piece:
'take as much of the bow for the long not as possible & give the short the leaast jerk at point & heel, alternately. |
