Last week I went on a trip to Donegal, where I bought this lovely second-hand 1978 Joe Foley bouzouki. Relative to my Fylde, this one's got a smaller body and bigger soundhole, giving it less bass and sustain and more punch in the high end - perfect for tunes!
The first tune is one I wrote myself, a jig called the Unwilling Sparrow. The second one is a traditional tune called I Buried My Wife and Danced on Her Grave, and the third one is called Jim Ward's.
Enjoy!
P.S. Many thanks to Suzanne for filming me.
NEW: The Unwilling Sparrow, and fifty-four other tunes I wrote over the past few years, is part of my new tune book, which is available from my website www.tijnberends.com
