Melodeon.net’s Theme of the Month for June 2010 – Write a Tune
Another attempt at writing a new tune; this one came out sounding very much like a Stephane Delicq composed Rondeau, but I’ve just checked all his CD’s, and no, it’s not a rip-off, it just sounds like it!
No video of me this time; instead we have some lovely photos by marj_k of various Australian cuckoos (find her on Flickr – sorry Marj, I would give a proper link to your pictures, but youtube tends to reject anything with a web address in it).
Played on a D/G Castagnari Mory with lots of reverb.

Melodeon.net’s Tune of the Month for June 2010 – Rusty Gully
My version of this 3/2 hornpipe from the north east of England (which is where I was born incidentally). No video of me this time; instead we have some lovely photos by Gail Johnson of St Mary’s Lighthouse, Whitley Bay (find her on Flickr – sorry Gail, I would give a proper link to your pictures, but youtube tends to reject anything with a web address in it).

Melodeon.net’s Theme of the Month for June 2010 – Write a Tune!
I wrote this tune about an hour ago! I was meaning to write a clever 5 time waltz, but somehow this old English-style hornpipe came out instead.
The opening phrases bear more than a passing resemblence to Jim Boulton’s Fancy (I did a search!), but that’s coincidental – I’ve never actually heard JB’s before.
Played on a 1 row Hohner 114 in G.
