Tootler Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Here's two Northumbrian Tunes. Till The Tide Comes In is a pipe tune and not normally dotted but I've given it a bit of swing and I think it works quite well. Steamboat is a hornpipe composed by 19th century fiddler and composer, James Hill. James Hill was born in Scotland but lived most of his adult life in Gateshead and his hornpipes are a staple of the Northumbrian repertoire as well as being widely known elsewhere. The photos in the video are of the North of England. In order, Whitby, Saltburn both in North Yorkshire and two of Steamers on Windermere in the English Lake District.

Steamboat is a hornpipe composed by 19th century fiddler and composer, James Hill. Terrific tunes and lovely playing. I'm a rabid James Hill fan; is there any music that sits better on an Anglo?

And lovely photos to accompany the video. Is there a Coble on the beach in the second photo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed James Hill hornpipes are great tunes and sit well on the anglo And yes it will be Cobles in the second picture. There are still a few inshore fishermen who take their boats out off the beach.

Jack Campin Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Somebody here mentioned Eastern European tunes. This Csango Hungarian ritualized-combat dance tune (from Moldavia) should sound great on an anglo and it's as swingy as they get: traditional instrumentation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JsTb9YedRT0&feature=player_detailpage#t=632 clearer sound, fiddle version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wH_fhqbE1aI X:3 T:Bulgáros T:Lérem, lérem M:C| L:1/8 Q:1/2=96 K:B Minor f3d f3d |f2f2 e2d2|e3d e3d |f2f2 e2d2:| B3c d>ce>c|d>ce>c d2c2|B3c d>ce>c|d>Bc>A B4 | B3c d>ce>c|d>cB>c d2e2|f>de>c d>ce>c|d>Bc>A B4 || It's a popular dance to teach to kids.
