Thanks for your interest. The tunes are: Den Burn, Morpeth Rant, Lady Mary Hay's Scots Measure, and Miss Catherine Maxwell's Scots Measure. This dance was a challenge to create a tune set for, because the lead tune is unusual. Let me know what you think!
@@SO-CALedoniansScottishBand Wonderful playing.However...there's somewhere else a video(Robert Lockhart) by the name of "A Mug Of Tea"It's a strathspey tune,and just the introtune fascinates me most.Somewhere I recognize the melody,but I am dying to know what the name is of that first tune.I never heard a strathspey like that during my long listening since the early 50s.
I enjoy much the music and like the gentlemen with skirts,I think they are very close to us because is the only culture that me use the skirts!Just luv it!
Thanks! If you are interested in Scottish dancing, the RSCDS (Royal Scottish Country Dance Society) has groups all over the world, so there may be one in your own country.
